ABSTRACT
As an important component of education system, on the one hand, modern vocational and technical education follows the convention of other higher education forms and possesses the general characteristics of higher education. While on the other hand, it also has some distinctive characteristics compared with the general standards and requirements of tertiary education. Therefore, vocational and technical education in teaching should have its distinctive requirements and characteristics. Otherwise, it may easily turn into the “hard tack” version of university-level education or the “blind arrogance” of technical secondary schools. Students graduated from higher vocational education are required to acquire the scientific and cultural knowledge and the basic professional knowledge. They are also required to master in professional and operational skills. In this way, students are equipped with the professional adaptability, innovation ability, entrepreneurship and the spirit of pioneer.
