Since the establishment of the first overseas Luban workshop in Thailand in 2016, the workshop named after the outstanding ancient Chinese craftsman Luban has given wings to young people from various countries to achieve their career dreams. In the past 10 years, China has built more than 30 Luban workshops worldwide, offering over 100 majors, enrolling over 30000 students with academic qualifications, and cultivating more than 160000 students. With technology as the bridge and heart to heart communication, Luban Workshop has become a "technical post" on the high-quality "the Belt and Road" and a shining card of Sino foreign vocational education cooperation, writing a vivid chapter of Sino foreign joint development and cultural integration. Establishing a new model for China's vocational education to go global, the teaching point located next to the ancient temple on the banks of the Mekong River includes a biomimetic robot learning experience area, a maze robot learning competition area, an innovation kit training area, and an automated production line teaching area. Dozens of Thai students are focusing on operation; At another teaching site, several Thai students gathered in front of the high-speed rail operation sandbox to discuss the operation route, while Chinese teachers occasionally took up the topic and answered questions... In March 2016, the Thai Luban Workshop, jointly built by Tianjin Bohai Vocational and Technical College and Thailand Dacheng Technical College, was unveiled, creating a new model for China's vocational education standards, vocational education equipment, and vocational education programs to go global. The Luban Workshop in Thailand has undergone three phases of construction and now has 15 teaching experimental areas. Starting with mechatronics technology, the program has gradually expanded to include applications in the Internet of Things, numerical control, new energy vehicles, and more. After the establishment of the Railway Institute Center in July 2018, majors in Railway Engineering Technology and Railway Operation Management were added, gradually forming a diversified teaching pattern. At the Luban Workshop, I learned advanced technologies such as the application of programmable controllers and robot numerical control, as well as rich theories and innovative solutions. ”Thai youth Vashan said, "The Luban Workshop not only taught me excellent technical skills, but also taught me the Luban spirit of striving for excellence." After graduating, Vashan successfully entered Haier Electric (Thailand) Co., Ltd. Luban Workshop focuses on the actual development of the country where it is located. ”Thai teacher Nitinu said. Wolawan, who studied high-speed railway signal automatic control at the Luban Workshop in Thailand, said that she went to Tianjin to study high-speed railway driving, signal control and other technologies through the workshop cooperation mechanism. "That experience greatly broadened my horizons. Wolawan said that it was her learning experience at the Luban Workshop that inspired her to aspire to become a high-speed rail technician. At present, all six majors offered by the Luban Workshop in Thailand have been certified by the Thai Vocational Education Commission and included in the national education system. After completing their studies, students can obtain qualifications recognized by the Thai education administrative authorities. The dual track education model of "academic education+skills training" was pioneered by the Luban Workshop in Thailand and promoted globally. The Luban Workshop in Thailand also attracts students from Malaysia, Indonesia and other countries to come and study, becoming an important base for cultivating skilled talents in the ASEAN region. "The settlement of the world's first Luban Workshop is the pride of Thailand." Ma Youli, president of Thailand's Dacheng Institute of Technology, said that Luban Workshop has trained a large number of professional and technical talents for Thailand's industrialization process and the high-quality "the Belt and Road" co construction between Thailand and China, changed the lives of many Thai youth, and enabled them to embrace and realize their dreams. Vocational education resonates with industry demand in the CNC machining technology training area of the Luban workshop at the Cairo Advanced Maintenance Technology School in Egypt. Several brand new machining centers are neatly arranged, and the program code on the screen keeps jumping. The students were dressed in blue workwear, with focused expressions - some were modifying parameters in front of the computer, some were bending down to observe tool paths, and some were using calipers to measure newly machined parts. A roar sounded, and a piece of metal billet splattered with sparks under the cutting of the tool. Guidance teacher Hu Saim gently reminded, "Pay attention to the feed rate!" In November 2020, two Luban workshops jointly built by Tianjin Light Industry Vocational and Technical College and Tianjin Transportation Vocational College - Ain Shams University Luban Workshop and Cairo Advanced Maintenance Technology School Luban Workshop - were officially unveiled. According to the demand of industries such as intelligent manufacturing, new energy, and automotive maintenance in Egypt, two Luban workshops have a total of 5 majors, and have trained more than 3000 local students so far. The Egyptian Luban Workshop is closely linked to the China Egypt Teda Suez Economic and Trade Cooperation Zone on the Red Sea coast. The cooperation zone currently attracts over 200 enterprises to settle in, requiring a large number of local talents proficient in modern manufacturing technology. Luban Workshop and cooperative zone enterprises jointly build a training base to achieve resonance between vocational education and industrial demand. The Chinese vocational education program has played an important exemplary role in the construction of Egypt's vocational education system. ”Hassan Imam, the head of the Luban Workshop at Cairo Advanced Maintenance Technology School, said that he went to Tianjin in January this year to learn from China's vocational education experience and study how to strengthen the integration of "Chinese+vocational skills" teaching. We are not only cultivating graduates with specialized skills, but also future talents who can serve the cooperation between Egypt and China and enhance people to people exchanges, "said Imam. The Luban Workshop has shown me another possibility in life. ”19-year-old Mustafa comes from a village in the Nile Delta. He hopes to learn the technology well and have the opportunity to work for Chinese enterprises in the cooperation zone, so that his family can live a better life and contribute to the friendship between Egypt and China. Assisting young people in pursuing their dreams on the world skills stage, the research and development of "precise seven level detection technology" has opened up the "7-second" life channel, winning valuable time for drivers and passengers to escape after thermal runaway of new energy vehicles; The "voice interaction system" enables technology to "speak up" and helps maintenance technicians efficiently diagnose faults; Leaving the laboratory and entering society, providing free testing and popularization services for new energy vehicles to local communities with technology and equipment... At the 2025 World Vocational College Skills Competition, young people from Kazakhstan won the bronze medal with their skilled operation in the "New Energy Vehicle Core Technology and Key Component Operation Skills Exhibition" project. In order to prepare for the World Vocational College Skills Competition, Chinese and Kazakh teachers and students formed a joint group: Chinese teachers are responsible for technical guidance and interpretation of competition rules, while the Kazakh team focuses on technology implementation and innovative practice. Through repeated connections, questioning, discussion, and summarization, collaboration has become increasingly seamless. Once, in order to overcome the balanced control logic of the battery management system, we discussed from 8 pm to 1 am, "Captain Anasel recalled. The Chinese teacher used bilingual courseware to break down the principle step by step, and also connected to the laboratory for real-time operation demonstrations, until each student could independently draw a control flowchart. This participation experience is a microcosm of talent cultivation in the Luban Workshop of East Kazakhstan Technical University. In December 2023, the Luban Workshop of East Kazakhstan Technical University, jointly established by Tianjin Vocational University and East Kazakhstan Technical University, will officially operate. The first phase will offer a major in Transportation Equipment and Technology, focusing on new energy and intelligent connected vehicles, introducing Chinese vocational education concepts, practical training systems, and modern teaching facilities. Dmitry, a young teacher, was previously a student majoring in Automotive Engineering at East Kazakhstan Technical University. Previously, most student internships were conducted at maintenance stations, but the arrival of the Luban Workshop changed this situation. The 'golden signboard' of Luban Workshop is getting brighter and brighter, "Dmitry said. Graduates of Luban Workshop have now entered enterprises to participate in new energy vehicle projects, and students of East Kazakhstan Technical University rely on the Luban Workshop platform to obtain more internship opportunities. Luban Workshop promotes mutual promotion between education and industry, "said Dmitry. He chose to stay on campus to teach, hoping to use this platform to cultivate more students and contribute to the development of Kazakhstan's manufacturing industry. The teaching content of Luban Workshop at East Kazakhstan University of Technology has become an important part of the undergraduate and graduate training program. The embedding rate of doctoral courses has reached 66.6%, attracting more than 400 international students from Nigeria, Mongolia, Belarus and other countries. In August and November of last year, the second and third Luban workshops in Kazakhstan were successively unveiled, with a focus on artificial intelligence and industrial robot technology. Aribek Tazhbayev, director of Kazakhstan's "Eurasian Monitoring" Analysis and Research Center, believes that as a model of Kazakhstan China vocational education cooperation, Luban Workshop focuses on Kazakhstan's industrial development plan, focuses on training professional and technical talents to meet the needs of local industrial development, transformation and upgrading, "helps the young generation master future oriented vocational skills, and injects strong power into the innovation and sustainable development of the" the Belt and Road "countries".
