If they don't want to continue studying culture, which direction should junior high school graduates choose?

At the online television consultation program with the theme 'Directions after completing grade 9' organized by Thanh Nien Newspaper this afternoon, May 23, representatives of a number of colleges and intermediate schools shared a lot of information related to choosing a major that suits the abilities and interests of junior high school graduates.

Which industry is suitable for an extroverted, dynamic personality?

Parent Dao Thi Thuy, Tan Phu District, Ho Chi Minh City, wondered: "My child is active and extroverted. She also does not like to study cultural subjects in high school but wants to learn a profession related to event organization. Do vocational schools offer this training?". Master Tran Phuong, Principal of Viet Giao Secondary School, said that event organization is a very 'hot' industry today, attracting the attention of many students, and at the same time, the demand for human resources is also very large.

Student of service management and event organization

"Viet Giao Secondary School enrolls and trains students in entertainment service management and event organization. Students will be equipped with knowledge of event planning, sales and marketing skills, sponsorship, logistics, risk management, program design, inviting public figures...", Master Phuong informed.

According to Master Phuong, the qualities to study well in this field are being active, extroverted, able to withstand pressure, always enthusiastic and full of energy to be creative.

In addition, students also need to be equipped with the ability to use tools and applications that operate on social networking platforms and applications in the field of event management and entertainment services. Upon graduation, students can work in fields such as media, television, as a social media influencer to promote products or become an animator; organize team building; organize tourism and sports events; manage entertainment areas, etc.

Like to assemble machines, should study engineering?

Meanwhile, Ngo Van Toan, a 9th grade student at Tang Bat Ho High School, District 4, Ho Chi Minh City, wondered: "I don't like studying cultural subjects but like assembling machines. My mother agreed to let me go to vocational school. So what vocational school should I register to study to suit my interests and have a job right after graduation?"

Those who like to assemble can study many technical fields including automotive technology.

Dr. Nguyen Hoang Hung, Vice Principal of Saigon Polytechnic College, explained: "If you like assembly, you can study subjects related to automobiles, electricity - electronics, mechanics, computers, etc. After finishing intermediate school, you can transfer to college and graduate with a bachelor's degree or practical engineer's degree depending on your major. In addition, the school also creates conditions for you to transfer to study or do internships in Korea, Japan, and Australia."

According to Dr. Hung, the curriculum focuses on professional skills required by businesses so that graduates can work immediately after graduation, with 70% of the time spent on practice and 30% on theory and culture as prescribed by the Ministry of Education and Training.

Not only are there many "hot" majors to choose from, students who complete grade 9 and go to vocational school are also supported by the state with tuition fees at the intermediate level. "Students only need to study for 3 years to get a secondary degree, then can immediately enter the labor market or study for 1 more year to get a college degree and continue to get a university degree if they want. Saving time and money, this is a very suitable direction for students in difficult circumstances who want to have a career to earn income soon," said Master Tran Phuong.
