Abstract

Based on 5G, 6G expands from serving people, people and things to supporting efficient connections among intelligent agents, shifting from IOE to all things intelligent, and contributing to the creation of a bright vision of intelligent IOE and digital twin. This thesis discusses the trends of education metaverse development, considers the challenges and reflections on vocational education in the future, and reviews the drift of vocational education development in 6G era in accordance with the current situation of 6G development and Chinese vocational education. It also makes recommendations for improving top-level design and strategic planning in the hope of providing a support system for establishing high-quality 6G vocational education, thereby cultivating healthy development of modern vocational education and its practice in the 6G era.
