Japan to Assist Vietnam in Technical Personnel Training
The Japanese Government will help Hanoi University of Industry (HUI) develop human resources to meet Vietnam’s growing demands.
An agreement regarding the three-year project was signed in Hanoi on Nov 24 by the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA)’s Vietnam Office, the Hanoi University of Industry (HUI), the Ministry of Industry and Trade and the Ministry of Planning and Investment.
The project follows a 2000-2005 project, under which JICA helped the Hanoi College of Industry – HUI’s predecessor – improve its vocational training capacity.
As part of the project, a range of equipment, machines and training methods were transferred to the college. A Vietnam-Japan center was established when the 2000-2005 project was completed, providing high-quality training in welding, lathing, metal cutting and sharpening.
Japan is one of biggest donors of official development assistance (ODA) to Vietnam. The Japanese government has so far helped build 256 primary schools in 17 provinces in flood-prone areas and four mountainous northern provinces.
At present, about 2,800 Vietnamese students are studying in Japan.
