This study used the dynamic scenario simulation of system dynamics to perform simulation on the effects of education policies, trend of employment demand, and employability qualities of vocational college graduates on the development of employment demand in Taiwan's technology industry. According to the research results, dynamic situational simulation of system dynamics can be used to simulate the effect of changes in education policy system with time on the development and trend of employment demand in technology industry. The simulation results of policy scenario showed that the talent shortage in technology industry should be overcome by improving education policy. The problem of talent shortage cannot be effectively alleviated until the matching rate between education policy and employment demand reaches 90%. The simulation results of this study can be provided as reference for education policy planners to improve the employability of vocational college students. It is intended to provide valuable suggestions to reduce the unemployment rate of vocational college graduates and to substantially reduce the gap between industries and academia, in order to further enhance Taiwan's competitiveness in the global economic system.

Abstract


This study used the dynamic scenario simulation of system dynamics to perform simulation on the effects of education policies, trend of employment demand, and employability qualities of vocational college graduates on the development of employment demand in Taiwan's technology industry. According to the research results, dynamic situational simulation of system dynamics can be used to simulate the effect of changes in education policy system with time on the development and trend of employment demand in technology industry. The simulation results of policy scenario showed that the talent shortage in technology industry should be overcome by improving education policy. The problem of talent shortage cannot be effectively alleviated until the matching rate between education policy and employment demand reaches 90%. The simulation results of this study can be provided as reference for education policy planners to improve the employability of vocational college students. It is intended to provide valuable suggestions to reduce the unemployment rate of vocational college graduates and to substantially reduce the gap between industries and academia, in order to further enhance Taiwan's competitiveness in the global economic system.
