Higher vocational education in Canada features the reduction of theory,emphasis of practice and the focus on ability.Its curriculum setup meets the professional demands,course development is based on job requirements,course design focuses on practical ability,and teaching programs center around the application competence.Based on the learnings from their experience,this paper proposes that the working process of professional activities should be used to determine the curriculum system,task objectives or actual solutions to a problem should be applied to design the curriculum,the implementation of the project-oriented methods should be used as the teaching carrier,and curriculum practice should possess the characteristics of being true,higher,open and through.
