The vocational education and training sector has significant global challenges in the economic progress of a country. There needs to be increased labor participation in the education and vocational training sector and the integration of new technology to increase economic productivity. An increased quality of skilled human resources supports this productivity. This is a challenge for academics to do more research in the field of Technical and Vocational Education (TVE) to increase and form skilled workers. Recent trends in research in TVE can be used as avenues and bridges for partnerships between academics and TVE policymakers in each country. This study will discuss the latest research trends through literature reviews and bibliometric analysis. The findings show current trends in selected journal studies focusing on three main areas, apprenticeship, measurement, and evaluation, as well as the use of information and communication technology in the field of TVE. This study shows how important literature review studies and bibliometric analysis are to obtaining information about this phenomenon. This study is prospective to help and become a reference for scientists and researchers in conducting and determining research topics, especially related to global trends in technical and vocational education research. As a consequence of the issues that arise and develop in research in the field of TVE, educational institutions must improve and encourage more research to meet future demands. © 2023 Nova Science Publishers, Inc.
