Abstract: The new pattern of global industrial in-depth collaboration has put forward new requirements for foreign language education in vocational colleges. Foreign language education needs to focus on value reconstruction, promote the appreciation of students’ international human capital, enhance their intercultural competence, facilitate the construction of global vocational identity, and foster the coupling between the education system and the industrial system, thereby empowering the internationalization of vocational education. Vocational colleges, through language planning, content development, functional expansion, and subject construction, promote multidimensional coordination and strengthen the exploration of innovative paths for reform in foreign language education.
