Immediately after the Prime Minister issued Decision 1446/QD-TTg dated August 30, 2021 approving the Program "Training and retraining to improve human resource skills to meet the requirements of the Fourth Industrial Revolution", the Provincial People's Committee promptly issued Plan No. 190/KH-UBND dated October 8, 2021 to specify the Central Government's policy on goals, tasks and solutions to implement the program in the province.

Propaganda work has been stepped up to raise awareness of workers, employers, students and stakeholders about the quality of human resources. The province has conducted a survey on the current status of vocational skills of workers at more than 300 enterprises, focusing mainly on the following areas: Manufacturing and processing industry, logistics, textiles, automobile technology, high technology, information technology and tourism services.

On that basis, vocational education institutions have adjusted the list of occupations and the structure of enrollment quotas according to labor market needs; built and updated short-term training programs and retraining programs for workers currently working at enterprises; and proposed to open new occupations with high technology applications or to meet future vocational skills requirements.

These institutions also focus on innovating the curriculum; strengthening cooperation with enterprises in organizing teaching and practice, contributing to improving the quality of training and the ability to meet the labor needs of enterprises. Accordingly, from 2021 to present, vocational training institutions have reviewed and updated more than 200 existing training programs and built 140 new programs towards integrating knowledge of the 4.0 industrial revolution. The programs and textbooks are reviewed and newly built according to current regulations, ensuring that the practice rate accounts for 70-80% of the total program duration; implementing innovation in the structure of training programs to help students and graduates immediately meet the practical requirements of enterprises and production and business establishments.

The province also focuses on organizing training activities to improve professional capacity, pedagogical skills and digital capacity for teachers and managers in vocational education institutions. On average, each year, the province organizes training to improve professional qualifications for about 150 teachers and managers. Some businesses in the area have coordinated with vocational education institutions to select and train highly skilled people to become internship instructors at businesses.

Quang Ninh also applies many policies to support enrollment and training for vocational training institutions, such as: Tuition exemption and reduction, support for study and dormitory costs; priority enrollment for disadvantaged labor groups (ethnic minorities, people with disabilities, unemployed workers). Training forms are diversified and flexible: Work-study; training at enterprises; training links between vocational schools and universities and colleges outside the province.
