บทคัดย่อ

 The study of the period of vocational education in Thailand reflects the consideration of social and cultural contexts integrated into the way of life of citizens. The study results were from literature synthesis and interviews with those involved in government agencies and educational institutions. The researcher has linked time boundaries to the development of global social dynamics. This led to the backwardness of education management and led to the adoption of new ideas by developed countries. As a result, vocational education management in Thailand takes into account the geographical advantages linked to career choices. Until there is a vocational education policy to be in line with the direction of economic development. However, the Career Development Directions study before 1957 to 2021 has shown that the concept of education was the result of a unilateral effort by the government and was not trusted by schools and enterprises. Although the current focus is on building a network of cooperation between different sectors. But it also reflects the lack of readiness in many areas that need mechanisms to drive education.
