VietNamNet Bridge – Viet Nam plans to have around 40 high-quality vocational training institutions by 2020, aiming to improve comprehensively the country’s vocational training to meet requirements of high-quality human resources for socio-economic development.
This is part of a scheme on developing high-quality vocational training institutions by 2020, which has recently been approved by PM Nguyen Tan Dung.
Accordingly, a high-quality vocational training institution is recognized when it trains at least 2,000 students, of whom at least 30% are trained in key vocations. In addition, at least 80% of the graduates land the jobs they were trained within six months after graduation, and the rate is 90% to key vocations.
The scheme also regulates other specific requirements for the recognition, including those on students’ vocational qualification and English proficiency, which are recognized by regional and international educational and training institutions; training quality; on lecturers and trainees and on the institutions’ management.
To realize the scheme, several vocational training institutions with good capacity and investment plan are selected to help them reach criteria of high-quality vocational training institutions by 2020.
Conditions to ensure training quality, management and training improvement at the selected institutions to meet regional and international standards will also be enhanced.
In addition, a system that manages training quality at the selected institutions will be developed and applied while activities related to management over training, training quality, staff and curriculum will be digitized.
Meanwhile, preferential policies will be developed to encourage all economic sectors to invest in both public and private vocational training institutions to help them meet requirements of high-quality institutions.
