Military academies and non-commissioned officer academies play different roles in the Chinese education system, and although they are both aimed at cultivating excellent military talents, there are obvious differences in many aspects.

The winter and summer vacations of military academies are usually arranged during the training period, so the vacation time is relatively unfixed; The winter and summer vacations of the non-commissioned officer school are relatively fixed, and the cadets can have more free time during the holidays.
Finally, graduation assignment is also one of the important differences between officer schools and non-commissioned officer schools. Graduates of military academies are usually sent to large units for assignment, while graduates of noncommissioned officer academies can mostly choose to return to their original units to continue their work.
