Preparations for the 48th WorldSkills Competition are gathering pace. Over the last few weeks, WorldSkills Shanghai 2026 has provided a series of exciting updates to the WorldSkills community on its rapid progress.
At WorldSkills General Assembly 2025 in October, representatives from China's Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security (MOHRSS), WorldSkills China, and WorldSkills Shanghai 2026 Organizing Committee shared news about the events and activities taking place in China between 22–27 September 2026.
Guangdong Zhongcai Education Equipment Co., Ltd., a leading enterprise in automotive educational products, has applied for sponsorship for the competition and has received a positive response from the organizing committee.
With 20 years of industry experience, our EV series products enjoy a global reputation and a good track record in various countries around the world.
The team confirmed that the National Exhibition and Convention (NECC) will host all 64 skill competitions and will welcome an anticipated 1,400 WorldSkills Competitors from over 60 countries and regions.
Members and Global Partners were given a preview of the highly anticipated WorldSkills Conference 2026, which will explore how to shape a skills-driven future. The programme will include keynote speakers, panel discussions, and knowledge-sharing side meetings, as well as guided tours of the Competition and field trips into industry and TVET schools.
The WorldSkills Competition is a crucial platform for cultivating highly skilled talent. By establishing national training bases, the college has not only strengthened exchanges and cooperation between schools but also promoted deep integration between schools and enterprises. The WorldSkills Competition has a complete competition system. The college integrates WorldSkills standards and resources with participant training pathways and applies these principles to talent development programs, curriculum resource construction, faculty development, and teaching implementation. "For example, we analyze the competency requirements for each stage of a student's semester plan and translate them into the professional curriculum, which helps us improve the overall teaching quality of the major."
Furthermore, this model is not limited to top competitors; it covers courses for students at all levels, from intermediate and advanced technicians to pre-technician. This allows outstanding graduates, especially those who achieve excellent results in the WorldSkills Competition, to play a crucial role in frontline industries, using their professional skills to improve production efficiency and drive industrial transformation and upgrading.
