How has China's vocational education developed in recent years?

In recent years, China's vocational education has a good development momentum, the vocational education system has been continuously improved, the school-running model has been continuously innovated, and the number of students in vocational schools has been increasing. The enrollment scale and the employment rate of graduates have reached a new level, and the development prospect of modern vocational education is broad. Vocational education has entered a historical stage of connotation development.

The results of the seventh population census show that in recent years, the average educational years of the population aged 15 and above in China have increased from 9.08 to 99 1 year. The ever-changing status of education reflects that China's measures to vigorously develop higher education have achieved positive results, and also tells us that, firstly, university education has gradually become a kind of general education; Second, education in independent undergraduate course is no longer popular, and the demand for full-time talents is growing.

Specifically, there are the following aspects.

1, the number of students in secondary vocational schools in China is increasing.

According to the report, in 2020, the number of students in China's vocational development education exceeded 35 million, and the number of students in private secondary vocational schools in China continued to grow from 20 15 to 20 19, reaching about 2.244 million, an increase of146,700, with a growth rate of about 6.9%.

2. Higher vocational colleges will expand enrollment by 6,543,800+0,000.

20 19 At the second meeting of the 13th National People's Congress in March, Li Keqiang, Premier of the State Council of the People's Republic of China, People's Republic of China (PRC), proposed to speed up the development of modern vocational education and solve the shortage of high-skilled talents while alleviating the current employment pressure. The 2020 government work report proposes that higher vocational colleges will recruit 2 million students on a large scale within two years, and encourage more fresh high school graduates, retired soldiers, laid-off workers and migrant workers to apply for the exam.

3. The structural employment contradiction in China is still outstanding.

At present, there are more than 200 million skilled workers and more than 50 million highly skilled personnel in China. Nevertheless, the proportion of skilled workers in the total employed population in China is only 26%, and the proportion of highly skilled personnel in the total skilled personnel is only 28%. Compared with developed countries, there is still a big gap, which requires China to speed up the cultivation of skilled personnel and high-quality workers. No matter the employment environment or policy support, secondary vocational education and even higher vocational education will be the main force of vocational education in the next few years.

China has established the largest vocational education system in the world.

202 1 is a year of deepening development in the 13th Five-Year Plan. The state attaches great importance to vocational education, further clarifies its function and role, determines that vocational education and general education are two different types of education, builds a modern vocational education system, and promotes vocational education to enter a new stage of high-quality development. With the development and transformation of China's economy, the demand for talents has also changed, and the career development education industry has broad prospects.
