"Global Journal of Vocational Education Cases and Practices": An Overview

Global Journal of Vocational Education Cases and Practices is an international academic journal dedicated to advancing cutting-edge developments, innovative practices, and theoretical research in the field of vocational education. It serves as a global platform for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers to exchange ideas, share insights, and collaborate on shaping the future of vocational education. Through case studies, empirical research, policy analysis, and best-practice dissemination, the journal promotes the internationalization, localization, and digital transformation of vocational education, supporting high-quality development worldwide.


I. Why Organize a Special Issue?

Organizing a special issue in collaboration with Global Journal of Vocational Education Cases and Practices represents not only an innovation in traditional academic publishing but also a strategic opportunity for institutions to enhance their global influence and foster deep collaboration in vocational education. The core values of organizing a special issue include:

1. Focused Thematic Research to Build Institutional Academic Branding

  • Institution-Centric Research Initiatives: Vocational colleges, academic conference organizers, or research institutions can propose special issue themes aligned with their strengths (e.g., smart manufacturing, digital transformation, industry-education integration). By soliciting global contributions, they can establish a distinctive academic brand.

  • Establishing Academic Authority: Special issue themes undergo rigorous review by the journal’s editorial board, ensuring research frontiers and academic rigor. This helps institutions gain authoritative discourse power in specific fields and elevate their international academic standing.

  • Accumulating Teaching and Research Outcomes: Special issue publications serve as pivotal evidence for institutional grant applications, teaching achievement awards, and professional accreditations (e.g., UNESCO-UNEVOC certification), providing sustained momentum for institutional development.

2. Facilitating International Exchange and Building Global Collaboration Networks

  • Cross-Border Academic Platform: Leveraging the journal’s international distribution channels, special issues attract global scholars, fostering dialogue on vocational education philosophies and practices across cultures and driving the localization of international experiences.

  • Deepening Industry-Academia-Institution Synergy: Special issues can co-design themes with enterprises, industry associations, and domestic/foreign institutions (e.g., “Dynamic Matching Mechanisms Between Vocational Education and Industrial Demand”). Collaborative research, data sharing, and co-authorship strengthen integrated innovation across sectors.

  • Empowering Conference Outcome Translation: Academic conference organizers can curate outstanding conference papers into special issues, extending the academic impact of events, providing long-term interaction platforms for participants, and creating a closed-loop ecosystem of “conference-special issue-practice.”

3. Promoting Knowledge Sharing and Empowering Vocational Education Innovation

  • Accelerating Research Application: Special issues address pressing challenges in vocational education (e.g., skills mismatch, digital teaching resource development). Through case analyses and policy recommendations, they offer actionable solutions for governments, institutions, and enterprises, bridging theory and practice.

  • Supporting Digital Transformation in Vocational Education: Special issues may feature dedicated sections on “Digital Technologies Empowering Vocational Education,” showcasing cutting-edge practices like virtual simulation, AI-driven instruction, and blockchain-based credit recognition to help institutions build smart education ecosystems and improve talent quality.

  • Advancing Global Equity in Vocational Education: Open Access (OA) publishing ensures free downloads of special issue papers, providing developing-country vocational institutions with access to international best practices and narrowing global resource disparities.

4. Enhancing Institutional Resource Integration and Expanding Collaboration Horizons

  • Attracting High-Quality Partners: The authority and global reach of special issues attract enterprises, international organizations, and government agencies, creating opportunities for horizontal grants, joint international laboratories, and other resources.

  • Strengthening Talent Development: The special issue compilation process cultivates a research team proficient in international academic norms and cross-cultural communication, laying a talent foundation for subsequent global projects (e.g., Erasmus+, Luban Workshops).

  • Expanding Academic Dissemination Channels: Special issue papers are globally promoted via journal databases and social media, helping institutions overcome geographical barriers and reach broader audiences.


II. Background and Objectives of Special Issue Collaboration

To deepen thematic research and foster international academic cooperation in vocational education, this journal launches a Special Issue (SI) Collaboration Program with global research institutions, academic conference organizers, and vocational colleges. By focusing on specific themes and integrating high-quality global research, the program aims to produce thematic outcomes with academic influence and practical value, facilitating in-depth exploration and global sharing of solutions to hot-button issues in vocational education.


III. Special Issue Collaboration Model

1. Theme Proposal

  • Partner-Initiated Themes: Prospective partners (e.g., colleges, institutions, conference organizers) submit SI theme proposals aligned with their research strengths or industry needs (including theme background, significance, and objectives) to the editorial board.

  • Editorial Review and Approval: The editorial board evaluates proposals through expert peer review. Approved themes proceed to global call-for-papers.

2. Call-for-Papers and Peer Review

  • Global Submissions: Announcements are distributed via the journal’s website, partner channels, and international academic networks, soliciting original research papers, case reports, or practice summaries.

  • Quality Assurance: All submissions undergo double-blind peer review by the editorial board to ensure academic rigor and innovation.

3. Publication and Dissemination

  • Priority Publication: Accepted papers are compiled into a Special Issue, published as a standalone section in the journal with “Special Issue” branding.

  • Global Outreach: The SI is distributed internationally via the journal’s website, databases, and partner platforms to maximize impact.
