The Influence and Inspiration of German Vocational Education Law on China

Abstract

Vocational education in Germany is relatively mature, with a relatively well-developed legal system and supporting policies that are constantly being added to in response to changing times and circumstances. The Vocational Education Act of China was enacted and implemented in 1996. However, with the rapid development of economy and society, it has become increasingly unsuited to the requirements of the times. However, it does not fully guarantee and support the future development of vocational education. Germany, as a strong country in vocational education, has clear laws and regulations, a standardized examination system, and a rigorous faculty, which has brought us great influence and inspiration. In this paper, we will discuss in depth the influence and inspiration to our vocational education based on the characteristics of German vocational education, which has some positive significance to the future planning of our vocational education.
