This study explored the framework and implementation of the OECD’s PISA-VET and proposed feasible strategies for Taiwan’s response. PISA-VET aims to establish a standardized assessment mechanism for learning outcomes in initial vocational education and training (VET), fostering cross-national comparison and policy benchmarking. From 2023 to 2032, the OECD plans to advance PISA-VET through three phases—development, pilot testing, and dissemination—to construct a standardized and internationally comparable framework for evaluating foundational VET programs. The initial assessment focuses on five occupational domains: automotive technicians, electricians, business and administrative services, healthcare/nursing assistants, and hotel receptionists. In addition to technical competencies, PISA-VET evaluates students’proficiency in a range of generic employability skills, including literacy, numeracy, problem-solving, task performance, and collaboration. Nevertheless, the implementation of PISA-VET faces multiple challenges, such as cross-national differences in VET structures and contexts, disparities in digital infrastructure, uneven readiness for using digital tools in skill assessment, and the technical complexity of developing valid assessment instruments for diverse occupational fields. Despite these challenges, Taiwan should begin preparatory work to assess the feasibility and potential benefits of future participation in PISA-VET. Recommended areas of effort include collecting and analyzing data and information from the PISA-VET pilot phase, conducting local research using OECD-developed assessment tools, experimenting with digital simulation and performance-based assessments, strengthening students’generic employability competencies in authentic vocational contexts, and improving schools’digital learning environments alongside students’digital literacy. Through proactive research and strategic preparation, Taiwan can better assess the advantages and limitations of participating in PISA-VET, enhance collaboration and benchmarking with other countries, and ultimately promote the advancement of VET curricula, instruction, and industry–education collaboration. |
