Abstract: Under the background of intelligent upgrading of automobile industry and deepening of vocational education reform, there is an urgent demand for reforming the evaluation mode of automobile testing and maintenance professional talent training. This study aims to reveal the research hotspots and trends in the field based on the bibliometric analysis, and explore the reform path by combining the driving mechanism of industry-education integration and the practical revelation of Sino-German cooperation program. CiteSpace is used to analyze the keywords of CNKI related literature and deeply analyze the evaluation cases of Sino-German projects. The study finds that: research hotspots focus on the integration of industry and education, curriculum reform and competency-based evaluation; the Sino-German project innovatively realizes the diversification of evaluation subjects, the synthesis of content, the process of methodology and the integration of standards; and accordingly, it forms the “Goal Leadership, Evaluation Innovation, Curriculum Reconstruction, and Teacher Empowerment”. Accordingly, a four-dimensional reform path of “goal leadership-evaluation innovation-curriculum reconstruction-teacher empowerment” was formed, with the construction of a process-oriented, competency-based and diversified evaluation model as the core breakthrough. The study provides empirical evidence and operable paths for professional evaluation reform, and helps the deep integration of industry and education and the improvement of talent cultivation quality.
