Concepts and Practice Used in Vocational Education for International Development during COVID-19 in China

Abstract

One of the world's most serious threats, COVID-19, has affected the lives of countless people worldwide, killed thousands, disturbed the learning process, and placed several economies on the verge of collapse. However, it has compelled individuals and organizations in public administration, business, education, and society in general to reexamine conventional thinking. The Chinese government uses new tactics and strategies to deal with the current economic crisis. Entities are crossing the unknown territory. Plenty of what we are seeing now reflects countries, businesses, and communities ready to tackle the problem from various angles. People's capacity to find work and increase their productivity can be improved through the development of new skills, which can help countries become more competitive. Investment in a skilled workforce can set off a positive feedback loop in which higher productivity and development lead to more and better jobs for the current workforce, as well as increased public and private funding for education and training. A worldwide upheaval as COVID-19 presents a new set of difficulties for the educational system and TVET (Technical and Vocational Education and Training), and this review attempts to shed some light on how they should respond.
