本研究旨在探討面對全球化浪潮、知識經濟興起、資訊科技革命以及環境變遷等趨勢，曾淪為殖民地的台灣與新加坡，其職業教育政策如何配合經濟發展，改變國家整體發展。透過貝瑞岱比較研究法，比較臺灣與新加坡教育史與經濟發展的關係；利用文件分析法，分析臺灣與新加坡職業教育改革；透過深度訪談法，了解兩國人民對政府提倡職業教育與對職業教育之看法等，最後擷取訪談結果與文件分析比對、三角檢測後，根據研究發現提出以下結論：
一、兩國職業教育發展依據歷史演變配合經濟政策。
二、兩國政府均積極改革職業教育。
三、新加坡職業教育搭配政策發展，政府主導偏實務導向；台灣職業教育自由多元，學生創意無限、多面向發展。
四、兩國皆有主管職業教育相關業務機關，新加坡政府資訊發達、整合力強；台灣相關業務機關零星分散，申請手續不友善。
五、臺灣職業教育學制多元體系完整，新加坡重視與社會連結之務實課程。
六、新加坡課程內容重視務實致用、產學合作與海外實習，但台灣以升學為導向。
七、台灣人民對職業教育教育接受度提高；新加坡人民仍舊視職業教育教育為次等教育。
八、兩國教育均面臨學生來源不足；然新加坡善用地理環境與國際化條件，注重人力資源，目前尚無學生來源不足問題。
九、兩國職業教育改革推動單位與目標相同，但推動方式與作法不同。
