ABSTRACT

Higher vocational education is an important field to promote higher education cooperation in Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao Greater Bay Area. Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao can give full play to their respective vocational education advantages and characteristic resources, get rid of all constraints on the development of education cooperation, establish a collaborative education mechanism for higher vocational education, and create an international vocational education demonstration area. On the one hand, Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao have the same needs and cooperation motivation in the field of internationalization oriented higher vocational education. On the other hand, there are objective obstacles such as the cooperation policy and framework system needs to be improved, the integration of education ecology is difficult, and the dilemma of educational cooperation needs to be effectively solved. In order to speed up the cooperation and development of international higher vocational education in Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao, this study puts forward three measures and suggestions: first, establish a platform mechanism for collaborative education and linkage development of higher vocational education, improve and refine cooperation policies, and accelerate the pace of policy implementation. Second, conduct in-depth research on talent demand in key industries, and clarify the fields and framework of higher vocational education cooperation. Third, pilot projects should be carried out first, seek common ground while reserving differences, encourage multiple social forces to participate in cooperation, and promote the ecological integration of vocational education. The above measures are aimed at accelerating the construction of International Vocational Education Demonstration Zone in Greater Bay Area and promoting the sustainable development of higher vocational education cooperation in Greater Bay Area.
