The document, to replace a similar protocol signed in 2008, was penned after talks between Vietnamese Minister of Education and Training Pham Vu Luan and visiting Mozambique Minister of Education Angusto Jone Luis.
Under the 2008 protocol, Vietnam received five Mozambique students annually to study in its schools, and currently 16 Mozambique students are studying at the Vietnam Academy of Agricultural Sciences.
Every year Vietnam also sent five students to study Portuguese for 9 month courses in Mozambique. So far 25 Vietnamese students have been sent to the African nation for the language courses.
Since 2008 Vietnam has sent 8 education experts to Mozambique and received a Mozambique expert to teach Portuguese in the country.
With the new protocol, both sides will double the number of scholarships for their students to 10 each as of 2014.
