Supported by educational ecology and industry-education integration theories, this study adopts a mixed research method to sort out relevant research and practices at home and abroad, clarify its core connotation and operational logic, analyze existing problems, draw on mature international experience, and propose core implementation paths and a comprehensive guarantee system. The research shows that the core of the ecosystem construction is to realize the cross-border integration of the industrial chain, education chain and innovation chain and the value co-creation of multiple subjects, which can support the international education of vocational colleges and the transformation of China’s vocational education. The research limitations and future directions are also pointed out.</abstract><keywords/></article-meta></front><body/><back><ref-list><ref id="B1" content-type="article"><label>1</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><p>Yuan P, Chen L, 2019, Historical Experience and Evolution Logic of Industry-Education Integration in Vocational Education in the 70 Years of New China: Analysis of 25 Vocational Education Policies, Laws and Regulations Texts.
