Abstract

To meet the demand for core skills such as Docker and Kubernetes in enterprise cloud computing operation and maintenance positions, implement the talent training policy of integrating "post, curriculum, certificate and competition" in higher vocational education, and closely align with the core assessment requirements of the "Cloud Computing Application" module in the 2025 Guangdong Provincial Vocational College Skills Competition, this paper takes the cloud computing course of the computer network major in higher vocational colleges as the research object, focuses on the Docker and Kubernetes direction, and constructs and implements a curriculum reform plan integrating "post, curriculum, certificate and competition" to address the prominent problems such as the disconnection between traditional teaching and posts, certificates and competitions. This plan deeply integrates the core skills of enterprise positions, the examination points of the 1+X Cloud Computing Operation and Maintenance Vocational Skill Level Certificate, and the core skill points of the provincial competition into the curriculum system, optimizes the teaching content and project-based teaching tasks, and improves the evaluation system and teaching resources. Verified by one semester of teaching practice, the reform plan has effectively improved students' practical application ability, the pass rate of the 1+X certificate and their competitiveness in competitions, effectively solved the pain points of the disconnection between traditional teaching and posts, certificates and competitions, and provided a practical and promotable reference for the reform of cloud computing courses in higher vocational colleges.
