Vocational Education Quality Evaluation: Theoretical Foundation and Indicator System Construction

Abstract

This paper constructs a comprehensive evaluation framework for the quality of vocational education in China based on the CIPP model. Traditional evaluation methods have difficulty fully reflecting the multidimensional characteristics of modern vocational education that integrates academic knowledge, technical skills, and practical abilities. Therefore, we constructed a set of evaluation index systems covering four dimensions: environmental system, resource input, educational process, and educational outcome. The evaluation system provides a practical and feasible tool for assessing and improving the quality of vocational education. The findings help to serve China's strategic goals of building a strong education nation and cultivating new quality productivity, and provide support for the systematic assessment and continuous improvement of vocational education quality.
