The research article consisted of the following objectives: 1) to investigate the needs for the development of administrative model for short-term vocational course training integrated with occupation by using total quality management (TQM); and 2) to develop and evaluate the administrative model for short-term vocational course training. A sample group consisted of 81 school administrators and 162 school lecturers from Polytechnic College, College of Agriculture, and Technology and Fisheries College.

The training is overall at a high level with the needs being prioritized according to PNImodified from high to low as follows: course design (0.89), course implementation (0.78), evaluation (0.55), a study of needs (0.36), and follow-up (0.34). Lecturers have needs at a high level with the needs being prioritized according to PNImodified from high to low as follows: course design (1.46), course implementation (1.17), a study of needs (0.84), evaluation (0.82), and follow-up (0.73); and 2) From evaluating the administrative model for short-term vocational course training, it is revealed to be overall of high propriety, with utilization having the highest level, followed by concepts or principles of a model, and lastly, components and sub-components.
