Abstract

Developing a mutual recognition mechanism for China-ASEAN qualification framework of vocational education is essential for creating a fair, freely mobile lifelong learning system that will enable learner to carry and accumulate their learning outcomes across the region. By formulating and implementing unified standards, mutual recognition of qualifications across domains, industries and regions will be promoted, fostering greater collaboration and mobility between educational institutions and workplaces. To achieve this objective, China and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) have undertaken extensive preparations and explorations at the policy, organizational and functional levels. The development commitments outlined in the “Vision 2030 of China-ASEAN Strategic Partnership” provide a framework for the establishment of a mutual recognition mechanism, while the existing promotion measures of all parties demonstrate their commitment to realizing this vision. This paper proposes the concept of five development stages of mutual recognition of national qualification frameworks (NQFs) in vocational education, which will gradually establish the mutual recognition mechanism of regional NQFs. This mechanism will not only promote greater collaboration and mobility between learners, educational institutions, and workplaces but also achieve the ultimate goal of comprehensive development of people and society in the region.
