What are the advantages and disadvantages of vocational education in China?

The threshold of vocational education is low.

The low threshold of vocational education is mainly reflected in two aspects. First, the requirements for academic qualifications are low. No matter junior high school students, senior high school students, technical secondary school students, junior college students and unemployed people, they can participate in vocational education, learn or upgrade their skills, so as to better obtain employment opportunities. The second is zero threshold learning. Learners don't need a theoretical or technical foundation. As long as you are interested in the training content and want to engage in this industry in the future, you can learn it. For example, Jiangxi Xinhua specially develops teaching courses for students with zero foundation, and students with zero foundation can learn technology well.

The combination of vocational education and social needs

Nowadays, the development of vocational education is closely integrated with the needs of society, and what kind of talents the society needs is cultivated, which is more flexible than ordinary higher education. It is more flexible to set up majors oriented to social needs. Vocational schools can offer any major needed by society. If a major is eliminated by society, vocational schools can quickly change the direction of this major to adapt to society. In this respect, vocational education has greater advantages than general education. On the basis of a certain general education, the education of professional knowledge, skills and professional ethics adapted to a certain occupation is carried out, so that the educated can become applied talents needed by social occupations. The essence of vocational education is a skill-oriented education, and skill-oriented is the essential attribute of vocational education.

As we all know, many media in China have repeatedly disclosed that there is a serious shortage of technicians in China, and the annual salary of recruiting senior die-casting workers, senior fitters and CNC machine tool operators exceeds 65,438+10,000 (according to statistics, CNC machine tool operators are short of 700,000). From behind these news, we can see that the technicians in China are in a rather scarce situation. At present, there are 87.2 million skilled workers in China, including 3.6 million technicians and senior technicians, accounting for only 4% of the total, which is only equivalent to110 of the total number of senior technicians in developed countries. Vocational education is to cultivate "skilled" talents according to social needs.

Only people with vocational education can adapt to the requirements of social development more quickly.

Whether it is vocational education or general education, it is to prepare for future employment, and vocational education has greater advantages than general education in employment.

High-quality "double-qualified" teachers are more conducive to the cultivation of talents. Higher vocational education is a type of higher education, and it is an education to cultivate applied talents with a certain cultural level and strong professional skills. Compared with other types of education, higher vocational education pays more attention to the cultivation of practical skills and practical work ability. Therefore, higher vocational teachers should not only have the moral quality of "preaching" and the professional knowledge of "dispelling doubts", but also have the superb professional skills needed for "teaching".

"Double-qualified" teachers are special high-quality teachers in vocational education. "Double-qualified" teachers refer to teachers who can not only teach professional theoretical courses, but also have certain practical experience (that is, have social and professional post experience and professional-related qualifications or abilities). At present, vocational colleges will send teachers with certain teaching experience to enterprises to participate in production practice, so that they can better understand the first-line production process and improve their practical ability; Organize teachers to obtain relevant professional senior post qualification certificates or relevant professional senior assessor certificates.

Therefore, "double-qualified" teachers occupy a large proportion in vocational education, and then students with high quality, strong practical ability and ability to solve practical problems can be cultivated for enterprises and institutions.

Vocational education is employment education.

Higher vocational education is an important part of China's higher education, which plays an important role in implementing the strategy of rejuvenating the country through science and education and strengthening the country through talents, and has great advantages in social development. Therefore, it is necessary to speed up the development of vocational education and play a more important role in social development.

Educate workers or preparatory workers to develop their intelligence, cultivate their vocational interests and cultivate the basic knowledge, practical knowledge and skills needed to engage in specific occupations. The content of vocational education is different from the theoretical indoctrination of traditional education. Mainly according to the requirements of enterprises for talents to cultivate talents. On-demand training can largely ensure students' employment problems. Jiangxi Xinhua Computer School carries out school-enterprise project order classes to undertake projects together with enterprises, helping students to consolidate their skill base, accumulate experience and enhance their employment confidence in practice.
