Facing a changing manufacturing landscape and increasing demand for skilled workers, the Chinese government is calling for investment in vocational education and looking for its partners in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) to create a regional development community for deeper cooperation on vocational training and economic integration.
"This is our educational practice of how China's vocational education today adapts to industrial development," said Yi Jun, Party secretary of CQVIE. Yi said over 100 online and offline exchange activities between the two countries have been organized in recent years, benefiting more than 10,000 students and teachers. Both sides have exchanged students over 1,000 times. Over 100 internationalized faculty members have been trained, along with more than 500 faculty members in Thailand.
