The goal is to increase the number of students, improve the quality of training, ensure graduates find employment, and, importantly, gain social support for vocational education and training, considering this a crucial solution to enhance the quality of Vietnam's human resources.

Minister Dao Ngoc Dung stated that all documents related to the implementation of the Vocational Education Law have been issued fully and promptly. 63 documents have been issued and, after review by the Ministry of Justice, have basically met the requirements and ensured compliance with regulations.

Many schools have now completed their enrollment targets, and encouragingly, the entrance scores for many schools reached 14-15 points.

Efforts to strengthen the connection between businesses and schools are also being implemented vigorously; most schools now sign agreements with businesses and set output targets. It is expected that in September, the Prime Minister will organize a large-scale national forum related to improving the professional skills of Vietnamese workers.

“In particular, the quality and effectiveness of training have improved significantly. The 2018 graduation results, based on evaluations, show that 851 students from vocational schools found employment after graduation, an increase of 51 compared to 2017. However, we are aware that this is only the initial result, and we will strive even harder,” the Minister emphasized.
