UK supports vocational skills for Vietnamese students
Le Tran 10:39, 2014/04/01
The UK-based Westminster Kingsway College will implement a British Council-sponsored project at Vietnam’s Kien Giang Vocational College to improve students’ vocational skills.
This is the result of a fact-finding tour of the UK by a Kien Giang College delegation led by rector Nhan Thanh Liem.
 
 
The UK school has pledged to support its Vietnamese counterpart in improving its staff’s capacity and qualifications, and promoting students’ job skills.
They will also introduce opportunities for Vietnamese colleges to work with international partners to develop curriculum, so as to promote mutual understanding and forge links between the UK and Vietnam.
Seungeun Chang, who is in charge of the Westminster Kingsway College International Partnerships, affirmed that the UK college wants to develop partnerships with Vietnamese schools and is willing to share its experience with recruiters in meeting real market demands.
Vietnamese Ambassador to the UK Vu Quang Minh spoke highly of the project  and affirmed that it will assist Vietnam's vocational schools to implement training programmes which meet the recruiters’ demand and help Vietnamese graduates find employment.
The Ambassador expressed his hope that the British Council will continue to support Vietnam through other cultural and educational projects.
This is Westminster Kingsway College’s second project in Vietnam after the successful model with Vinh College of Industry in Nghe An province.
