摘要

英语是所有行业国际交流中最常用的语言,而物流是企业战略中的关键差异化因素之一。培养能够超越所选行业要求的物流专业毕业生是大学的主要目标之一。本研究的目的是调查东部经济走廊(EEC)物流核心竞争力(LCC)的英语能力问题和英语能力要求。本研究采用定量研究方法,采用基于四项英语技能的调查问卷,以运输、配送和物流胜任力模型、运营管理协会模型和企业物流管理框架为基础,收集从业人员对初级物流人员所需技能的要求。来自欧共体各行业的179名受访者做出了回应。平均分数的结果表明,主要问题是听力技能的不足。参与者的平均物流英语水平为B2,包含24个技能要素。对C1要求最高的是物流规章制度和批判性分析思维。本研究的结果对物流课程设计者以重要的LCC补充传统课程的能力有显著的贡献。未来的研究需要进一步阐明泰国物流专业学生向CEFR B2和C1发展物流英语语言技能的挑战和障碍。

Evaluating English Proficiency Requirement for logistics core competency: CEFR framework for entry-level logisticians in Thailand’s EEC context
English is the most commonly spoken language for international communication across all industries, whereas logistics is one of the key differentiators in corporate strategy. Producing logistics graduates who go above and beyond the requirements of their chosen sector is one of the universities’ main objectives. The study’s objectives were to investigate the English proficiency problem and the English proficiency requirements for logistics core competencies (LCC) in the Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC). The quantitative research approach was selected, and a survey questionnaire was used based on four English skills, whereas the transportation, distribution, and logistics competency model, the association for operations management model, and the business logistics management framework were used as the basis for the survey, which is designed to collect the requirements of practitioners on the required skills for entry-level logisticians. 179 respondents from various EEC industry sectors responded. The results of the mean scores indicate that the primary issue is a deficiency in listening skills. Participants’ average English proficiency for logistics was B2, with 24 skill elements. The highest needs for C1 were in logistics rules and regulations and critical and analytical thinking. The results of this study can contribute significantly to logistics curriculum designers’ ability to supplement the traditional course with a crucial LCC. Future research is needed to clarify further the challenges and obstacles of developing the logistics English language skills of Thai logistics students towards CEFR B2 and C1.
