(1) Introduction to Self-taught Examination

1. What is the self-taught examination for higher education?

The higher education self-study examination is a national examination for self-learners, which is a combination of individual self-study, social assistance and national examination.

The self-study examination of higher education has the following remarkable characteristics:

① Authority. The system of higher education self-study examination is a national examination, and the state recognizes the qualifications of graduates.

② openness. People who take the self-study exam are not restricted by age, sex, previous education, occupation (except special majors), nationality, living area, physical condition, etc.

③ flexibility. The self-study exam adopts the method of single subject examination and credit accumulation, which is not limited by the semester and academic year system. Candidates can decide the courses and the number of courses according to their own conditions, and arrange their own examination progress according to the professional examination plan.

④ amateurism. The important feature of the self-study exam is that amateur self-study is the mainstay, and the contradiction between work and study is small.

⑤ efficiency. For individuals, taking the self-study exam costs less than entering ordinary colleges and adult colleges, which is an effective way to receive higher education with less investment and high efficiency.

1. What are the types of self-study exams? What is the difference?

as far as the organizational form and object of the examination are concerned, there are several types of self-taught examination, such as regular examination, industry entrusted examination and applied technology professional examination.

Regular examination refers to the so-called self-study examination, that is, the examination for the society in April and October every year. Because there are no restrictions on applying for the exam (except for a few majors), it covers the vast majority of majors that have already started the self-taught exam in this province, so the number of applicants and the subjects they apply for rank first in all kinds of exams; Industry-commissioned examination refers to a major that is commissioned by an industry or department for its own needs, so as to train talents for the department or industry. The learners of this kind of examination are mainly employees of their own departments and industries, and most of them take the form of collective registration, and usually do not accept the individual registration of scattered candidates in society. However, with the increasing demand for specialized talents in society, except for special majors such as nursing, traditional Chinese medicine and public security management, which are still only open to insiders in the industry, most industries have no restrictions on the qualifications for entering the exam, but applicants need to contact relevant departments for registration, student assistance and other related matters.

for the above two types of examinations, the course examinations are arranged by the state, and the graduation certificates are issued by the municipal self-taught examination committee and the examiners' colleges and universities.

3. What is the certificate exam?

Certificate examination is a post qualification or vocational qualification certification examination carried out according to social needs during the development of self-study examination. Candidates can obtain the corresponding level of post qualification or vocational qualification certificate by passing the prescribed course examination. The purpose is to cultivate the practical application ability of candidates and enhance their employment advantages.

the certificate examination course can be combined with the academic qualification examination, which can be used for both purposes. After passing all the courses, you can get a junior college or undergraduate diploma, and you can also get a non-academic post or vocational qualification certificate at the same time.

certificate courses can also be set up separately. Only get the qualification of post or occupation.

At present, the certificate examination items in our city are: intermediate and advanced vocational certificates of e-commerce; Certificate of Cambridge Business Management and Advanced Business Management in Sino-British Cooperation; Cambridge Certificate in Financial Management and Advanced Financial Management for Sino-British Cooperation; Intermediate and senior qualification certificates of professional managers in China catering industry; Labor and social security post qualification certificate; Junior, middle and senior qualification certificate of China logistics professional manager; Sino-British cooperative registered purchasing and supply manager certification level 2 and level 4 certificate; Preliminary, intermediate and advanced certificates of survey analysts; Mechanical engineer qualification examination; China Marketing Manager Assistant, Manager and Director Qualification Certificate.

With the social demand for skilled talents, the types and scales of certificate examinations will gradually increase.

4. Are self-taught graduates the same as ordinary college graduates in use, treatment and job hunting?

Article 31 of the Provisional Regulations on Higher Education Self-study Examination promulgated by the State Council in March, 1988 stipulates that the on-the-job personnel who have obtained the diploma of junior college (basic course) or undergraduate course in higher education self-study examination shall be adjusted according to the needs of their work by their units or their higher authorities in line with the principle of using what they have learned and giving full play to their expertise; Non-on-the-job personnel (including farmers) shall, according to the needs of the labor and personnel departments of provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government, plan to select the best candidates or employ them within the scope of compiling and increasing the number of people. Article 32 stipulates that the salary of graduates of higher education self-study examination is the same as that of similar graduates of ordinary colleges and universities after being employed; If the salary of on-the-job personnel is lower than that of similar graduates of ordinary colleges and universities, it shall be implemented according to the salary standard of similar graduates of ordinary colleges and universities from the date of obtaining the graduation certificate.

5. What's the difference between the self-study exam and the higher education in colleges and universities?

As a different form of higher education, the most obvious difference between self-study examination and ordinary colleges and universities lies in the following: the former adopts a lenient approach in the whole education process, and there is no entrance examination; The latter needs to take the national unified entrance examination for colleges and universities, meet the prescribed admission conditions and be formally admitted before they can participate in the study. Secondly, there is no quota limit for the self-study exam, and all China citizens can take it as long as they have the ability; The enrollment quota of ordinary colleges and universities is uniformly issued by the Ministry of Education, and colleges and universities are not allowed to expand the enrollment quota at will. Third, the self-study exam is mainly based on individual self-study, and the exam cost is low, the exam is flexible, and the candidates have strong autonomy; Ordinary colleges and universities are in-school education, and students go to school full-time and full-time. Each semester, they have to pay a certain amount of tuition fees, and students have to study and take exams in strict accordance with the arrangement of each semester.

6. Can self-taught graduates take the postgraduate entrance examination?

The Interim Provisions on the Self-taught Higher Education Examination issued by the State Council clearly stipulates that the state recognizes the qualifications of the self-taught higher education examination, while the postgraduate entrance examination stipulates that as long as you have a nationally recognized higher education diploma, you can take the postgraduate entrance examination. Therefore, self-taught graduates can apply for graduate students.

There are two types of postgraduate entrance examinations for self-taught candidates: undergraduate graduation and junior college graduation. Self-taught undergraduate graduates can take the unified national postgraduate examination, regardless of whether they have obtained a degree (if they have not obtained a bachelor's degree, they cannot take the examination for applying for a master's degree with the same academic qualifications, because the examination requires applicants to have a bachelor's degree). Self-taught college graduates who apply for graduate students should know in advance the regulations of the school to be applied for (because the postgraduate entrance examination is the responsibility of colleges and universities, the school can set its own conditions for admission). Many schools stipulate that college graduates must work for two years before they can apply for graduate students. Some schools also stipulate that they must pass the main courses of self-taught undergraduate courses, and some schools stipulate that some majors do not recruit college graduates. For the specific application, candidates should consult the graduate admissions office of the university to be applied for in advance.

7. Can self-taught candidates study abroad?

self-taught candidates can study abroad. With the deepening of China's reform and opening to the outside world, more and more people are studying abroad from the candidates. It is understood that Australian and British institutions of higher learning basically recognize China's self-study exam. Some institutions of higher learning in the United States, Canada and other countries recognize China's self-study exam. These foreign institutions of higher learning recognize the academic certificates issued by the Beijing Higher Education Self-taught Examination Committee, and allow self-taught candidates with academic certificates or single-subject certificates to study in our school, or to study for degrees or to be exempted from or reduce some courses.
