ABSTRACT

Vocational education and general education, as two distinct educational systems, fulfill different social functions. Under the promotion of China's Credit Bank System, alongside the ongoing revision of "credit system" talent cultivation frameworks in higher vocational institutions, the content and form of vocational education have become increasingly flexible and personalized. This evolution effectively addresses the diverse backgrounds of students and provides sustained support for their long-term skill enhancement. Notably, the "1+X" certificate system, as a key measure in vocational education reform, integrates vocational college diploma education with the acquisition of multiple vocational skill level certificates, further advancing the alignment of students' competencies with industry demands. This enhances their employability and career development potential. Using the IoT course "ARM-Based Application Development" as a case study, this paper explores the reform strategies and implementation pathways of curriculum development in conjunction with the "1+X" Sensor Network Application Development Certification system. Empirical evidence demonstrates that the seamless integration of skill development with professional certification offers a new trajectory for the high-quality development of vocational education, while contributing to the provision of technically skilled professionals for regional economic growth.
