Construct the Educational Training Model of the Taiwanese Bakery Industry by using Consistent Fuzzy Preference Relation Analytic Hierarchy Process

Abstract

Whereas Taiwan baking industry is actively participating in large baking competitions, therefore, the more baking talents are in need. However, the good education and training have become urgent issues on the baking industry because of the shortage of qualified technical manpower. The research aim is to build an educational training model for the Taiwan baking industry. We use the research method which is called Consistent Fuzzy Preference Relationship Hierarchy Analysis (CFPR-AHP). CFPR-AHP is a better method than traditional AHP because it could solve the inconsistency of AHP and reduce the questionnaire burden of the respondents. The results are from seven practical experts with an average of 35.2 years of working experiences who have verified the simulation cases and have evaluated the applicability of the model. Also, five levels and 20 evaluation items have been established. The results show that the baking industry training model is composed of creativity, cultural awareness and teaching staff, as well as originality, ethics of mentorship and multiple experiences. The research uses CFPR-AHP such an innovative method to construct the educational training model for Taiwan Baking Industry. It will be helpful for launching the educational training model and also to provide the new training model for the government.
