Abstract

As the global economy grows, the labor market's demand for qualified employees increases. However, the present situation is not able to meet labor market requirements; laborers are inexperienced, and their professional skills are inadequate. Collaboration between vocational schools and businesses is essential for educational activities. This study aimed to investigate the degree of perception, the contents, the forms, and the variables that influenced collaboration activities in practical training between vocational schools and businesses. A quantitative study method was conducted on 570 respondents (195 teachers, 125 managers, and 250 graduated students) randomly recruited from four provinces/cities in Vietnam. The results show that participants perceived the importance of practical teaching coordination activities in vocational schools and businesses. In addition, some contents and forms were applied to collaboration teaching activities between vocational schools and businesses Future studies should consider similar experimental studies to develop appropriate practical training collaboration activities models based on perception levels and factors impacting activities. © 2022 Conscientia Beam.
