College students' professional core competence is the basic competence that people need to succeed in their work and life, besides their professional post competence. It enables people to show themselves confidently and successfully, and how to choose and use them according to specific situations.

The National Vocational Core Competency Certification Project (CVCC Project for short) holds that the so-called professional skills, also known as key competencies, refer to the transferable basic competencies that are widely needed in addition to professional competencies, enabling learners to demonstrate themselves confidently and successfully, and how to select and apply these competencies according to specific situations. With regard to the content of professional core competence, the Ministry of Labor and Social Security of our country divides professional core competence into eight items in 1998 National Skills Revitalization Strategy, which are called "eight core competencies", including: communication with people, digital application, information processing, cooperation with people, problem solving, self-learning, innovation, foreign language application, etc. Subsequently, on May 20, 20 10, the Education Management Information Center of the Ministry of Education officially issued a document to promote the CVCC certification project of national professional core competence, which includes three modules: basic core competence, expanding core competence and extending core competence.
