What are the characteristics of higher vocational education?
Characteristics of higher vocational education:

1, the fundamental task is to cultivate high-quality skilled professionals who can adapt to the front line of production, construction, management and service.

2. Design the knowledge, ability, quality structure and training scheme of students with social needs as the goal and job technical requirements as the main line.

3. To build the curriculum and teaching content system with cultivating students' technical application ability as the core, the basic theory teaching should be "necessary" and "sufficient", the specialized courses should be targeted and practical, and the practical teaching occupies a large proportion in the teaching plan.

4. Take students' "double certificates" as the training goal and the construction of "double-qualified" teachers as the key.

5. The combination of production and learning and the combination of school and enterprise is the only way to cultivate high-quality skilled professionals.

Its education level:

China's higher vocational education has formed a relatively complete system covering four levels: junior college, undergraduate, master and doctor.

The junior college level mainly trains high-skilled talents for enterprises.

Undergraduate level is mainly divided into application-oriented undergraduate and normal undergraduate. Application-oriented undergraduate education focuses on strengthening practical teaching, while normal undergraduate education focuses on strengthening students' "double-qualified" ability construction.

The master level includes professional master's degree, in-service master's degree of teachers in secondary vocational schools and full-time master's education in vocational and technical education. It is necessary to clarify their respective training objectives, adopt flexible education and teaching models and increase practical teaching links.

Doctoral level includes professional doctoral degree and professional doctoral education in vocational and technical education. In view of the main practical problems in this field, efforts should be made to improve the actual contribution of degree applicants to this field and stimulate the emergence of innovative achievements.
