Construction Pathways for Modern Higher Vocational Industry Colleges: A Study in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area
Abstract
Background and Aims: A pathway for the construction of contemporary higher vocational manufacturing colleges in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area institutions which primarily focused on promoting skills development among the workforce through specialty education. However, problems like funding and distribution of the colleges across regions act as limiting factors to these colleges.
Methodology: Primary data is obtained through a detailed questionnaire survey, while secondary data is gathered from related literature. This research countertypes the pivotal factors affecting the successful attainment of these colleges by utilizing the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and Delphi analysis.
Results: The study identifies stakeholder coordination, the harmonization of documented courses to meet the business world's demand, and technological support as key factors that avail curriculum improvement.
Conclusion: According to the findings of this research, increasing partnerships and developing more appropriate structural approaches can be beneficial for tackling new demands in the labor market by vocational education and training (VET) institutions and enable them to support regional development and increase innovative practices in the Greater Bay Area.
