Macau’s education system developed slower than nearby countries during the period of Portuguese colony. After handover to China, the gambling industry has driven Macau’s economy to grow fast in Asia, It offers numerous job opportunities and attracts a majority of workforce, rhi1e at the same lime it has crowded out other business and limited the possibility for diverse employment. To that end, young people are unable to experience adaptive learning, which decreases their willingness to attend vocational and technological education (VTE). To improve this dilemma, Macau has proposed the “Education Prospering Macau” policy and invested large amounts of funding for VTE. This study conducted document analysis, in-depth interviews and open-ended questionnaires to understand the current situation and problems of VTE in Macau. We also probed into the educational reforms and evaluated its effectiveness. Based on the results, suggestions for VET development iii Macau were generated, including well allocating funding to promote VET status, developing VET curriculum standards for multiple courses, strengthening teacher training, and improving evaluation mechanism. Implications for Taiwan were raised, like being aware of the influence of industry on course diversity, guiding students to learn practical skills via funding support, and providing adequate internship opportunities.
