The objective of this effort, which is a component of one aspect of China's Belt and Road initiative is studying how universities and colleges may better connect their curricula with those of other countries. The Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), a worldwide plan for the development of economic and infrastructure, has had both beneficial and bad effects on Beijing's vocational education system. The purpose of this study is to improve the global match between educational attainment and economic needs by conducting an evaluation of a number of different development models around the globe. It is possible to evaluate China's higher vocational institutions via the use of a survey methodology. In particular, it investigates the ways in which the BRI framework influences aspects such as foreign engagement, the integration of curricula, and industrial links. Students' employability, industry satisfaction, and international connections are some of the essential performance measures that are used in the evaluation of the models' effectiveness. 75% of the educational institutions that participated in the study reported higher employment rates for graduates. According to the findings, there is a favourable correlation between the integration of industry and education and improved job insertions. A score of eighty percent is sufficient to impress the majority of business partners. If vocational education systems wish to continue expanding throughout the BRI Phase, the research revealed that they will need to modify the courses they provide in order to cater to the requirements of companies, collaborate more closely with one another across international boundaries, and stay abreast of current trends. It is possible that the results of this research will be valuable to educators and policymakers who are concerned with enhancing the efficiency of vocational education within the framework of global integration.
