There are three main forms of adult higher education: full-time, part-time (including part-time and night university) and correspondence. Different learning forms have their own characteristics, which are suitable for different types of candidates, and candidates can choose freely according to the actual situation.
Full-time study: Young candidates or those who want to enter the university gate to experience university life can choose the form of full-time study. Full-time learning is a full-time learning mode on campus, and its management mode is the same as that of ordinary colleges and universities, with normal and relatively fixed teaching classrooms and management requirements for students, and stable arrangements for winter and summer vacations.
Correspondence: This form of study is also suitable for office workers and candidates with less spare time. Correspondence teaching focuses on planned, organized and guided self-study and organizes systematic centralized face-to-face teaching.
The main links of correspondence teaching are: counseling and answering questions, homework, experiment, practice, examination, course design, graduation design and defense. Arrange centralized face-to-face lectures about three times a year 10 days or half a month. In colleges and universities that recruit teachers, the face-to-face teaching time is generally winter and summer vacation.
Note: There are differences among full-time, correspondence and amateur learning forms.

Distance open education, also known as distance open education, is a form of education relative to traditional academic education. It is a new teaching mode that combines traditional face-to-face teaching, autonomous learning of textbooks, online real-time courses and online classes.

It has a powerful online learning platform, and each learning center also has face-to-face lectures to facilitate learning. It is the best choice for on-the-job personnel with irregular rest time to further their academic qualifications.
2, adult college entrance examination (night school, correspondence)
This is our more conventional form of adult education and the biggest choice at present. There is only one exam opportunity every year, probably in the middle of 10 every year. Classes are usually held on weekdays or weekends. For this kind of adult education, students still need to have a certain foundation. Compared with the other three forms, the entry threshold is slightly higher.

4. Self-study (self-study for school recruitment)
Here, I would like to explain the self-study exam (self-study exam), which is a brand-new self-study exam mode. Especially in view of the low pass rate of self-study examination in China at this stage, it is difficult to reform the new mode of self-study examination. Different from the ordinary self-study exam, the self-study exam will be taught by the school to explain the difficulties and test sites.
The main points of study will be more prominent, while the ordinary self-study exam (big self-study exam) refers to the social self-study exam, which is mainly self-study. Candidates who pass the single-subject examination will be issued with a certificate of conformity. After all subjects are passed, you can apply for graduation and issue academic certificates.
The functions of adult education in China mainly include the following aspects:
1. Provide education and training on cultural knowledge, professional skills and practical ability that are not available in performing duties for those who have already taken up jobs or production posts, or those who need to change jobs, as well as unemployed people who are seeking jobs;
2. Literacy education for illiterate people;
3. Those who have left regular schools will continue to receive basic education or higher education according to their cultural foundation and actual needs, and those who pass the exam will get corresponding graduation certificates;
