After the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949, Guangdong, as the birthplace of the Chinese workers' movement, saw the flourishing of the trade union cause. Trade unions at all levels in Guangdong Province urgently needed to train a large number of educated and qualified trade union cadres. In the autumn of 1952, the Guangdong Federation of Trade Unions, which was still in the preparation stage, established the Guangdong Trade Union Cadre School. In 1960, the Guangdong Trade Union Cadre School was abolished. In 1963, the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee approved the establishment of the Guangdong Workers, Youths and Women's Cadre School. In 1971, the Guangdong Provincial Revolutionary Committee ordered the abolition of the Provincial Workers, Youths and Women's Cadre School. It was not until 1980 that the Guangdong Trade Union Cadre School was officially restored, using the Guangdong Federation of Trade Unions Guesthouse as a school venue. In 1986, the Tianpingjia Campus in Tianhe District, Guangzhou City was completed and put into use, covering an area of 32 acres, changing the state of "preparing and running classes at the same time" and becoming the training center base for trade union cadres in Guangdong Province.
