With "support", businesses boldly invest
Binh Duong Vocational College (Dinh Hoa Ward, Thu Dau Mot City) officially started operating in 2008. Each year, the school trains about 10,000 students in various professions such as forklift driving, auto repair, industrial electricity...
To meet the practical needs of the market, the school constantly updates new training programs and invests in modern equipment in the teaching process. Thanks to that, Binh Duong Vocational College has become one of the prestigious training addresses, trusted and chosen by many students.
Mr. Le Ngoc Thuc, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the school, shared that since choosing Binh Duong as an investment location, the school has always received attention and enthusiastic support from the province. Thanks to preferential policies on taxes and administrative procedures, the school has quickly built and developed. To meet the needs of businesses and society, the school always focuses on innovating training programs, ensuring that graduates can quickly integrate into the working environment.
"Binh Duong Vocational College will standardize its teaching staff and invest in modern equipment to meet the requirements of businesses in the reform period. At the same time, we will expand potential training majors to meet the market's human resource needs," Mr. Thuc added.
Thanks to preferential investment policies in education, Binh Duong has attracted many large investors. A typical example is Mr. Ngo Tan Khanh Vinh, the investor of H123 Foreign Language Center and Faraday Creative Kindergarten. From the initial intention of opening only 1-2 foreign language facilities, Mr. Vinh and other shareholders decided to expand the business scale to 9 centers in Binh Duong. Next, the enterprise also invested in building Faraday Creative Kindergarten in Thu Dau Mot City on a large scale, meeting the increasing needs of parents.
Mr. Vinh shared that with a favorable investment environment and enthusiastic support from the local government, the company has decided to expand its operations in Binh Duong. Investing in education not only brings economic benefits but also contributes to improving the quality of education for the community. Currently, the company is planning to open more kindergartens in Tan Uyen city. However, what he is concerned about is the administrative procedures related to land.
"Currently, legal documents related to land in the education sector have been open to investors. Previously, to invest in schools, it was mandatory to have educational land. Now, other types of land, including residential land, can also be used to build schools. We hope that the departments and branches will quickly provide guidance so that investors can implement."
According to investors of other schools, although they really want to "invest" in Binh Duong, the most difficult thing right now is still land fund. The authorities need to have synchronous solutions to solve this problem, and at the same time continue to improve the investment environment to attract more investors to the education sector.
Land allocation and procedure simplification
To solve the problem of lack of land for education investment, Binh Duong province's leaders have made significant efforts. The province has completed planning and allocated priority land for social sectors, including education. District-level localities have also proactively planned clean land funds and publicly announced a list of priority projects to attract investment.
Thuan An City, with its large labor force, has become an attractive destination for many educational investors. Currently, the city has 98 non-public kindergartens and preschools. The city has also prepared 10 hectares of land in convenient locations with complete infrastructure to build educational facilities. Providing this land fund will help reduce investment costs and attract more investors to the education sector.
Mr. Nguyen Thanh Tam, Chairman of the People's Committee of Thuan An City, said that expanding land funds for education investment is a positive sign. However, to attract more investors, it is necessary to continue improving the investment environment, simplifying administrative procedures and creating more attractive incentive policies.
"If the mechanism is more open, it will be even better. With the spirit of the revised and supplemented Land Law, it is expected that the city's socialized education work will "blossom" more and contribute to reducing the burden on the budget, while improving the quality of education and urban development of the city in the future," said Mr. Tam.
In addition to providing land funds, Binh Duong province also has many other preferential policies to attract investment in education, such as tax incentives, financial support, and land lease. This has partly reduced the pressure on school facilities, especially in the context of rapid population growth. Investors have been given favorable conditions to build modern educational facilities to meet the learning needs of the people.
However, ensuring the quality of training at non-public educational institutions is also an important issue. The Department of Education and Training of Binh Duong province has strengthened the management and supervision of educational quality.
Ms. Truong Hai Thanh, Deputy Director of the Department, said: “The education and training sector coordinates with local People's Committees to inspect and evaluate the quality and effectiveness of training of school units. We also establish inspection teams periodically every year to inspect and examine non-public school units. From there, we will rectify, remind, and even suspend establishments that violate or do not properly implement their commitments and principles in the business of education and training.”
Binh Duong province currently has 732 schools at all levels, from kindergarten to high school. Of these, the non-public sector accounts for a large proportion with 336 schools, accounting for nearly 46% of the total number of schools. Particularly for vocational education, the rate of non-public schools is even higher, reaching 77%. In addition, the province also has 3 non-public higher education institutions with a total investment capital of up to 2,270 billion VND.
Thanks to the strong development of the education system, the province's training quality has also been significantly improved. Binh Duong students' achievements in the national high school graduation exams are always among the top in the country.
