In his opening remarks at the Seminar, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Bui Huy Nhuong – Deputy Director of the National Economics University emphasized that integrating training with practical experience has always been identified by the University as one of the key orientations in enhancing the quality of human resources. In this regard, the collaboration of the business community, professional associations, and state management agencies plays a practical role in incorporating the requirements of professional practice into the training process, thereby helping learners gradually perfect their knowledge, skills, and adaptability to meet the increasingly high demands of the labor market in the context of international integration.

The Advanced, High-Quality, Business Analytics, and POHE programs at the National Economics University are specialized academic programs meeting international standards aimed at the core objective of equipping learners with practical skills, application-oriented thinking, and the ability to quickly adapt to real-world working environments.

“To achieve this objective, the collaboration, feedback, and cooperation of the business community, associations, and state management agencies are of utmost importance. Today’s Seminar is an opportunity for the National Economics University and delegates to review the collaborative achievements attained, while also candidly discussing and assessing the existing difficulties and challenges in linking training with practical experience.”

This is also an opportunity for us to discuss and propose practical and more effective collaboration models and solutions for the future—from developing and enhancing academic programs, organizing practical activities, internships, to recruitment and maximizing the potential of human resources post-training,” Assoc. Prof. Dr. Bui Huy Nhuong shared.

Dr. Vu Van Ngoc – Director of the Institute of Advanced, High-Quality, and POHE Training presented a paper: Connecting Universities with Enterprises in Advanced and High-Quality Program Training

Emphasizing the crucial role of collaboration between universities and enterprises in training, Dr. Vu Van Ngoc – Director of the Institute of Advanced, High-Quality, and POHE Training stated: “The collaboration between universities and enterprises allows students and faculty members to access new knowledge, dynamic and practical lectures, as well as better understand the requirements of enterprises, thereby improving and innovating the teaching curriculum and admissions structure.

Enterprises can apply research, transfer knowledge; have the opportunity to select quality students who meet the requirements of the business, reducing retraining costs and enhancing the company’s reputation. Students gain access to new knowledge, strengthen work skills, and improve employability after graduation. For society, it contributes to economic development, creates more jobs for the region, and reduces the unemployment rate among students.”

From the perspective of a state manager, Mr. Le Van Binh – Chairman of the People’s Council of Phuong Duc Commune (Hanoi) believes that units receiving interns should provide opportunities for students, especially recent graduates.
