description With the construction and development of the “the Belt and Road”, the international community has an increasing demand for high-quality technical and skilled talents who both understand Chinese and have an international perspective. Exploring a Chinese curriculum system suitable for the development of international students is conducive to promoting the international development of vocational education, improving the quality of international student training, providing talent support for Chinese and foreign enterprises, and promoting the “going out” of Chinese enterprises and international production capacity cooperation. The training of international students in higher vocational colleges starts late, has little experience, lacks theoretical innovation, and lacks the development characteristics of vocational education. The teaching quality evaluation of international Chinese course in higher vocational colleges is multiple-attributes group decision-making (MAGDM). Recently, the TODIM and EDAS technique has been employed to manage MAGDM. The probabilistic hesitant fuzzy sets (PHFSs) are employed as a useful tool for depicting uncertain information during the teaching quality evaluation of international Chinese course in higher vocational colleges. In this paper, the probabilistic hesitant fuzzy TODIM-EDAS (PHF-TODIM-EDAS) technique is built to manage the MAGDM under PHFSs. Finally, the numerical example for teaching quality evaluation of international Chinese course in higher vocational colleges is employed to show the PHF-TODIM-EDAS technique. The main contribution of this paper is outlined: (1) the TODIM technique based on EDAS technique has been extended to PHFSs based on CRITIC technique; (2) the CRITIC technique is employed to derive weight numbers under PHFSs. (3) the PHF-TODIM-EDAS technique is founded to manage the MAGDM under PHFSs; (4) a numerical case study for teaching quality evaluation of international Chinese course in higher vocational colleges and some comparative analysis is supplied to validate the proposed PHF-TODIM-EDAS technique.
