To have high-quality human resources, Vietnam needs to build an open and modern occupational education system.

Businesses should play a leading role in occupational education and participate in several stages such as defining training demand, increasing the quality of student-centered training and building a quality training system.

At the seminar, UK enterprises shared their knowledge with and introduced technologies and equipment in occupational education and training to Vietnamese partners in the fields of automobile, garment and textile, construction and restaurant.
