The so-called "full-time national education" is the national unified recruitment, which is also commonly known as full-time colleges and universities. Full-time colleges and universities are in school at a fixed time, and part-time colleges and universities are part-time. The curriculum is determined according to their own majors.
Except for the national unified recruitment, all other academic qualifications are part-time, which is often referred to as social on-the-job academic qualifications. Among the part-time academic qualifications, they are also called "five academic qualifications", namely, adult, self-taught, TV University, correspondence and night university, and also called "adult education academic qualifications".
Integration of full-time and part-time systems In China's current education system, there are two forms of education: full-time and part-time. At the same time, the two forms of education implement a dual-track management mode, which is different from enrollment, curriculum setting, academic system, assessment, student management, specialty setting, department establishment and even graduation diploma. The difference between full-time and part-time education lies not only in the form of training, but also in their own complete management system, which occupies a piece in the whole national education system and is inviolable and independent of each other. This is because in the primary stage of the development of part-time higher education in China, considering that employees have been out of school for a long time and their knowledge level is low, it will be difficult to pass the strict and correct entrance examination if they choose like fresh graduates. Therefore, in order to ensure that on-the-job personnel can receive higher education, the adult college entrance examination is adopted, that is, on-the-job personnel do not take elective examinations in ordinary colleges and universities, but organize another examination, which is easier than the formal college entrance examination. Due to the differences in population examination and foundation, colleges and universities are worried that on-the-job personnel can't set up separate classes for them on the basis of ordinary classes after entering school, and at the same time, they have designed new training programs for them, so they are different from ordinary classes in terms of curriculum, teaching arrangement and academic system. Under the planned economy system, the enrollment, training and the number of graduates in China's higher education are strictly regulated by the state, and there is basically no elimination mechanism in colleges and universities. In this case, the gap between part-time and full-time teaching quality is becoming more and more obvious, which leads to the emergence of two diplomas, and finally divides the full-time and part-time systems.
