In China， the talents training mode evidently emphasizes cultivation of employ-ability skills and mainly focuses on the talents need of enterprises. Therefore， the specialties setup should be consistent with enterprise needs， and the humanistic quality of vocational college students cant be measured finally. As a result， the society and enterprises are not so satisfied with their new employees. Once a employer remarked that he really hoped the students can focus on how to be a good man in colleges and they will be trained for skills in workplaces later. Although it is an extreme suggestion， the society and employers have higher expectation for the humanistic level of vocational students.
