On the afternoon of October 14, a scientific workshop on training highly skilled human resources to meet the requirements of industrialization and modernization was held by the Central Propaganda Department at Dai Viet Saigon College.
According to the report of the Ministry of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs at the workshop, as of September 2024, the country has 1,886 vocational education institutions - including 399 colleges, 429 secondary schools and 1,058 vocational education centers. Of which, the number of non-public vocational education institutions is 684, accounting for 36.2%.
Dr. Nguyen Khanh Cuong - Principal of Lilama 2 International Technology College - said that one of the obstacles to training highly skilled human resources is the low student intake. Currently, there is a reality that students participating in vocational training are mainly from rural areas, poor households and families with preferential policies. Universities are recruiting students through too many methods.
Mr. Cuong said that the State needs to support more policies for students to participate in vocational training. The State can order training for high-quality training systems or have vocational training support policies such as support policies or credit loans for students to participate in high-quality vocational training.
In addition, the State should pay attention to investing in equipment and facilities through investing in vocational training institutions or building connecting "hubs" such as national and regional vocational practice centers to support vocational training institutions in implementing training, fostering, and improving the capacity of lecturers...
Associate Professor Dr. Nguyen Tien Dong - Principal of Ly Thai To College (Bac Ninh) - said that to ensure the quality of vocational training linked to the actual needs of businesses, it is necessary to have internal lecturers from businesses.
He said his school is implementing the "Train the Trainer" model - a model to train experienced experts in businesses to become internal lecturers. From there, the school will have an additional team of lecturers who are not only knowledgeable about professional knowledge but also have a deep understanding of production processes, technology and skill requirements of each job position.
Also according to the Ministry of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs, in the period 2019-2023, the rate of college graduates with jobs reached 79%. In secondary schools, this rate reached 82%. According to the Ministry's assessment, in some schools with a reputation for training quality and close relationships with businesses, the rate of college and secondary school graduates with immediate jobs is high (reaching 100%).
Mr. Pham Vu Quoc Binh - Deputy Director General of the General Department of Vocational Education - shared that the majors and occupations with good enrollment results mainly focus on popular majors and occupations with high labor demand in society such as engineering and technology, information technology, tourism, services, restaurants, hotels, etc.
Leverage business resources
Mr. Le Tan Dung, Deputy Minister of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs, said that a notable point in the current training of high-quality human resources is the participation of enterprises. Many domestic and German enterprises also have funds dedicated to training cooperation with enterprises.
Enterprises no longer just "wait" for schools to provide training but have actively participated with schools. Therefore, in the coming time, schools will also have to have strategies to take advantage of this resource from enterprises.
Full assessment to provide recommendations and vocational training solutions
Ms. Nguyen Thi Mai Hoa - Vice Chairwoman of the National Assembly's Committee on Culture and Education - said that the committee will strengthen supervision and will also advise the National Assembly Standing Committee on supervision activities in 2025 in the field of vocational education.
The monitoring activities will aim to fully assess the institutionalization of the Party's policies and viewpoints in the legal system from legal and sub-law documents and assess the current situation of practical implementation, thereby making recommendations, proposals and solutions in the coming time.
