Abstract
Since the 19th CPC National Congress, higher continuing education has been getting into a period of high-quality development, i.e., to meet people’s expectations for a better education. But higher continuing education cannot meet the growing needs of people because of the shortcomings in the operation of schools and the quality of talent cultivation, etc. This contradiction is caused by unfair competition among three main forms of higher continuing education, imbalance of school-running hierarchy, and public distrust of talent cultivation. It urgently requires universities and colleges to construct school-running system that matches social development to adjust school-running scale to the overall development of colleges and universities and to establish dynamic quality monitoring and evaluation system based on “Big Data” of education.
