Research on the Construction of Double-Certificated Teachers in Vocational Education

Abstract

The construction of “double-certifcated” teachers is an important support and basic guarantee for the development of vocational colleges and universities.An analysis of 20 policy texts on the construction of “double-certifcated” teachers in vocational colleges and univer-sities published between 2010 and 2021 and related literature shows that there are similar problems in the construction of “double-certifcated” teachers in vocational colleges and universities both at the policy level and at the practical level. For example, there is a lack of a complete system for the training of “double-certifcated teachers”; a single standard evaluation index, which is not very operational; and a lack of a corresponding evaluation and supervision system for the implementation of the policy, etc. Based on these problems, frst of all, we should es-tablish a joint research mechanism between schools and enterprises to build a standard system for recognizing “double- certifcated teachers”. Secondly, the cultivation mechanism should be improved to enhance the effectiveness of the cultivation of “double-certifcated teachers”; and fnally, a perfect and effective supervision mechanism should be established.
