Drawing on competence-based education, situated and workplace learning, the skill-acquisition model, and outcome-based education, this paper reports a school-enterprise reform in a jointly cultivated field-engineer Program in automotive lamp intelligent manufacturing. A three-step procedure of investigation, task decomposition, and expert review produced a post-competence map covering five post clusters and a three-dimensional measurable standard (disposition, knowledge, ability) with five technology indicators described at five progressive levels with evidence requirements. Guided by the standard, a four-tier progressive curriculum was rebuilt through the conversion path of typical work tasks, learning fields, and learning situations across four stages, supported by a six-joint mechanism with dual mentors and verified by a tripartite evaluation system. Pilot results show 100 percent post matching and enterprise satisfaction above 95 percent, offering a replicable paradigm for subdivided manufacturing sectors.Field engineer, School-enterprise collaboration, Training standard, Post-oriented curriculum, Competence map, Vocational education
