Special Issue on Vocational and Adult Education
Vocational
education is designed to equip students with the proper means for arriving at
their selected goals and professional development. While, adult vocational education
attempts to discover new methods and create new incentive for learning and
reorient their career. It helps adults to acquire or improve basic career skills
necessary to function in today’s society so that they can benefit from the
completion of enhanced family life, attaining citizenship and participating in
job training and retraining programs and even preparing for an active way to
work after retirement. Vocational and adult education are playing a more and
more important role in the global economy, which face the challenges of constant
renewal in both developing and industrialized countries.
In this special issue, we intend to invite
front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review
articles on exploring vocational and adult education. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
-
Vocational counseling
-
Training approaches
-
Adult education and literacy
-
Career and technical education
-
Community education
-
Workforce and professional development
-
Challenges of renewal
-
Work in future society
-
Vocational lifelong learning
-
Change of labour market
Authors should read over the journal’s For Authors carefully
before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their
complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission System.

under your manuscript title. The research field “Special Issue - Vocational
and Adult Education” should be selected during your submission.
