In order to improve the teaching quality thoroughly, the National Ministry of Education started the"College Teaching Quality and Teaching Reform Project"in 2003. The construction of elaborate course is an important component part of this quality project. This program was planning to build 1500 elaborate courses from 2003 to 2007. Every higher vocational college had an actively response to it and made great progress. Until now, 242 courses have been regarded as elaborate courses in the Vocational Colleges. However, only if the construction of course satisfies the standards which the elaborate course requires, the course could be regarded as the"Elaborate Course". Furthermore, the course will be a sample for the construction of other courses. Therefore, the construction of elaborate course in higher vocational college needs to advance with times, improve and perfect persistently.This article investigated the hot spot of how to construct the elaborate course in higher vocational colleges.
