The study aimed to identify the key factors of modernisation of educational technology programmes to improve vocational education in the context of the modern labour market. The methodological basis of the study was a comparative analysis of curricula in technical colleges in Ukraine and leading foreign countries such as the United States, Sweden and Germany. This method was used to analyse the vocational education system of Ukraine in the context of global trends and determine the relationship between international educational practices and changes in the Ukrainian system. The main results of the study demonstrated that the introduction of international approaches, such as the dual system of education and the use of the latest technologies, significantly improves the quality of training and increases their adaptability to the conditions of the modern labour market. The study determined that cultural and socio-economic differences can complicate the effective implementation of foreign experience, emphasising the importance of adapting these models to national conditions. The study has made significant progress in identifying effective strategies for integrating international educational practices, which will ensure the sustainable development of vocational education in Ukraine and increase the competitiveness of Ukrainian specialists in the global market. The results also highlighted the need for further study and improvement of the adaptation of international models to national realities. The study highlighted the importance of close cooperation between educational institutions, government agencies, and the private sector for the successful modernisation of vocational education. The findings can be useful for educational institutions in improving curricula, for government agencies in developing educational reforms, and for the private sector in actively engaging employers in training
