Abstract: This study investigates innovative models for career planning courses in higher vocational colleges within the context of AI development, specifically targeting financial and economic vocational colleges participating in the national“double high”construction plan. By conducting comparative analysis of career planning curricula across domestic and international higher education institutions, and aligning with the concrete indicators of the“double high”construction initiative, this research proposes systematic pathways for curriculum innovation. Findings reveal that AI technology has introduced transformative possibilities for career planning pedagogy. The study constructs an“AI+enhanced career planning”curriculum model featuring innovations in course objectives, content structure, teaching methodologies, and assessment systems. Research outcomes demonstrate significant implications for enhancing the quality of career planning education in vocational colleges and cultivating high-skilled technical talents capable of meeting contemporary industry demands.
