This book explores the vocational education programmes of Hong Kong, programmes which are repeatedly noted for their excellence.
The book traces the founding and development of the Vocational Training Council of Hong Kong, which was set up in 1982 to offer sub-degree programmes in vocational and professional education and training. It shows how it transformed itself from an institution seen by industry, government and the public alike as not meeting the needs of Hong Kong to one that has spearheaded the development of this form of education in Hong Kong, including offering degree programmes in these areas through its Technological and Higher Education Institute.
Written by a leading scholar of vocational education with extensive experience of devising and implementing vocational education programmes it offers this will be a valuable resource to students and scholars of education, particularly in an Asian context as well as vocational and professional education and training.
