Abstract
Technical and vocational education in China has gone through a long, tortuous course. Counting from the commencement of industrial and commercial education in the 1860s, the earliest technical and vocational education in China has a history of more than 150 years. However, because of the traditional concept “excellent learning assures a decent career,” and the underdevelopment of modern industries in China, the development of the technical and vocational education had been deterred.
