Abstract
The development of Vocational English Skills Standards(hereafter the Vocational Standards)is a crucial undertaking in implementing the Ministry of Education's 1+X Certificate System.It represents a new achievement in the development of proficiency scales of English for Specific Purposes.This paper elaborates on the development and validation of the Vocational Standards by outlining its objectives and principles,the construction of frameworks and descriptors,and the results of the two-stage validation.This paper highlights three key features in the development of the Vocational Standards:alignment with real workplace demands and implementation of industry-education collaboration;application of scientific methods to explore a localized approach to the development of English for Specific Purposes scales;and emphasis on precise expression to enhance its applicability in vocational English teaching.It also contends that the development and validation of the Vocational Standards can serve as a reference for strengthening the vocational English assessment system.
