Prof. Dr. Vu Hoang Ngan \u2013 Head of the Faculty of Economics and Human Resource Management; along with representatives from the University’s Schools, Departments, Faculties, Institutes, and Centers; scientists, authors with papers published in the Conference Proceedings, former doctoral candidates, former master’s students, and all current doctoral candidates, master’s students, and students of the Faculty of Economics and Human Resource Management.<\/p>\n\n

The world of work is entering a profound transformation phase influenced by artificial intelligence, automation, platform economy, population aging, supply chain shifts, and sustainable development demands. These changes not only introduce new employment models but also reshape skill structures, labor relations, and management methods within organizations.<\/p>\n\n

For Vietnam, the transition process urgently requires enhancing labor market forecasting capabilities, innovating training and retraining activities, and developing human resource management models that adapt to the new context. These are also the key points addressed in Resolution No. 57-NQ\/TW of the Politburo on breakthroughs in the development of science, technology, innovation, and national digital transformation.<\/p>\n\n

In his opening remarks at the Conference, Assoc. Prof. Dr. To Trung Thanh – Vice President of the National Economics University stated that the robust development of artificial intelligence, automation, platform economy, flexible employment models, and the demand for sustainable development are profoundly changing the organization of work, skill structures, labor relations, and the competitiveness of organizations.<\/p>\n\n

According to Assoc. Prof. Dr. To Trung Thanh, the ongoing shifts are not merely technological changes but are directly reshaping both supply and demand in the labor market. Job instability is increasing, the lifecycle of skills is shortening, while new labor generations such as Gen Z and Gen Alpha bring different expectations regarding work environments, development opportunities, and life balance.<\/p>\n\n

“For Vietnam, this is both a severe challenge of the risk of productivity lag and an opportunity to make a leap in developing high-quality human resources. Proactively identifying future employment trends, updating advanced human resource management knowledge, and proposing appropriate policy solutions are crucial for national competitiveness,” emphasized Assoc. Prof. Dr. To Trung Thanh.<\/p>\n\n

The Vice President of the National Economics University affirmed that, as a key research and training center in economics, management, and business administration, the National Economics University is always committed to pioneering in solving major practical development issues. Organizing the Conference continues to demonstrate the University’s efforts in connecting academic knowledge with the needs of the labor market and the business community.<\/p>\n\n

Guiding the discussion sessions, Assoc. Prof. Dr. To Trung Thanh suggested that scientists, experts, and delegates focus on three key areas. First is identifying new employment trends, forecasting labor structure shifts by 2030, with a vision to 2045, and proposing appropriate policies on social welfare, non-traditional employment, and labor migration. Next are digital transformation solutions in human resource management, the application of artificial intelligence, and data analytics in decision-making processes. Additionally, the Conference should clarify breakthrough solutions for retraining, skill enhancement, and promoting cooperation mechanisms between the State, educational institutions, and enterprises to build a digital leadership team and a workforce that meets global standards.<\/p>\n\n

Following these orientations, the presentations at the Conference approached the future of employment and human resource management from various perspectives, creating a continuous exchange from macro forecasts to practical applications in enterprises and the need for educational innovation.<\/p>\n\n

At the Conference, experts analyzed and forecasted Vietnam’s labor market by 2030, with a vision to 2045, in the context of economic structural shifts, thereby providing a quantitative basis to identify changes in employment structure and labor demand. From this macro picture, delegates continued to discuss the practicalities of human resource management in the global business environment, particularly the requirements for attracting, developing, retaining talent, and building organizational culture.<\/p>\n\n

Topics on global skill development, training, and retraining of Vietnam’s workforce in the era of artificial intelligence also garnered the attention of delegates. Additionally, lessons from the practical digital transformation of human resource management in enterprises provided many insights for innovating human resource management training activities in Vietnam.<\/p>\n\n

Within the framework of the Conference, the National Economics University and Global JobOKO Corporation signed a Memorandum of Understanding, opening up opportunities for enhanced cooperation between the two parties in training, research, and labor market connection.<\/p>\n\n

Assoc. Prof. Dr. To Trung Thanh – Vice President of the National Economics University and Mr. Pham Tuan Anh – Executive Director of Global JobOKO Corporation signed and exchanged the Memorandum of Understanding<\/em><\/p>\n\n

The agreement establishes a coordination mechanism for a period of 5 years, focusing on co-organizing professional programs for the human resources community; connecting businesses, internships, and recruitment for learners; collaborating on surveys, research, and publishing reports on the labor market; while also expanding opportunities for students and learners to access experts and practical data sources.<\/p>\n\n

The signing continues to concretize the direction of strengthening collaboration between the National Economics University and the business community, contributing to bridging the gap between academia and the labor market. This allows academic programs and research activities to better align with practical needs, while also expanding learning opportunities, career experiences, and capacity development for learners.<\/p>\n\n

The national scientific seminar “The Future of Work and Human Resource Management in the Context of Global Change” continues to affirm the role of the National Economics University in research, education, and policy consultation in economics, management, and business administration. The research results and exchanges at the Seminar contribute to providing further arguments for management agencies, educational institutions, and businesses to proactively adapt to changes in the world of work, aiming to develop a high-quality, innovative, and competitive Vietnamese workforce in the global environment.<\/p>\n\n
