Vocational school cooperation with enterprises: Towards sustainable development

DNVN - Connecting with businesses is no longer a trend, but a vital requirement in vocational education. Quy Nhon College of Technology is proving that with a strong transformation, turning business connections into a driving force to improve training quality, meet the labor market and spread sustainable development values.

Firmly a prestigious vocationaleducation brand

With over 63 years of establishment and development, Quy Nhon College of Technology (QCET, Binh Dinh Province) has affirmed its position as one of the leading vocational colleges in the country. This place is considered a reliable "red address" for students and workers who want to learn a trade, establish a career and start a business.

MSc. Pham Van Tuong - Vice Principal in charge of QCET (left), signed a cooperation agreement with Truong Hai Agricultural Joint Stock Company ( Thaco Agri).

Since 2020, QCET has become a national high-quality school, with many training majors meeting ASEAN and international standards. In the period 2021-2025, the school continues to improve its capacity to train high-quality technicians and practical engineers in cutting-edge technology fields (industrial electronics - semiconductors, information technology - artificial intelligence AI), serving well the human resource needs of businesses and the trend of digital transformation.

Not only that, QCET is one of three schools that the Government has piloted to innovate its operating mechanism towards autonomy, creating a professional and creative working environment like a real enterprise. This is the foundation that helps the staff and lecturers to commit, contribute and inspire learners.

Currently, QCET trains 8 faculties with nearly 4,000 students studying annually, with a team of experienced lecturers in the fields of: Engineering, technology, tourism - services, agriculture, culture and arts...

Training majors are divided according to international, ASEAN and national levels, such as: mechatronics, industrial electronics, industrial electricity, automotive technology, hotel management, food processing, tour guiding...

The practice and internship time at QCET accounts for 70% of the total training program time.

The special thing is that the school's training program is designed in the direction of "practice - practice - industry", in which the time for practice and internship accounts for 70% of the total time. Internship at enterprises is a mandatory content in the program, helping students to quickly approach production practices, corporate culture and new technology.

Business Linkage – The Golden Key to Opening the Door to Jobs

“Connecting businesses is a vital factor, the center of the school's training strategy,” affirmed MSc. Pham Van Tuong - Vice Principal in charge of QCET, in an interview with reporters of Vietnam Business Magazine.

QCET students can rest assured that their internship will last for more than 3 months at the enterprise with a lot of good support.

According to Master Pham Van Tuong, the four-party linkage model: school - enterprise - state and society (HSSV) is bringing comprehensive benefits. Students are trained in vocational skills, industrial style, high employment opportunities; enterprises have high-quality human resources, adapt quickly; schools save resources, training close to reality; society benefits from stability and sustainable economic development.

The school currently has a close cooperative relationship with about 100 large and small enterprises in and outside the province. From providing feedback on programs and curriculum, to coordinating training, receiving students for internships, and recruiting, businesses always accompany us throughout.

In particular, internships lasting over 3 months with hundreds of students/session, are supported by businesses with accommodation, travel expenses, even their own living expenses and are committed to official recruitment after graduation without probation.

Big names such as VinFast, Ba Na Hills, CP Vietnam, Tin Phat, Viet Human Resources Company... have become strategic partners of QCET, opening solid career doors for students.

A valuable point is that QCET has aroused and connected a network of alumni who are successful in their career paths. They not only return to support the school professionally, but also expand internship opportunities, award scholarships, and participate in consulting and recruiting for the younger generation.

Mr. Nguyen Viet Thang - Director of Toan Thang Automotive Technology Trading and Service Co., Ltd., a former QCET student, shared: "From 2017 to now, I have always accompanied the school in recruitment activities, scholarship sponsorship, training program suggestions... That is a way to show gratitude to the place where I was given wings".

Many QCET alumni are "midwives" in career recruitment for generations of junior students.

With a solid foundation and clear strategic orientation, QCET is a model of vocational education associated with enterprises. The school not only provides high-quality human resources for the labor market, but also affirms its pioneering role in the vocational training ecosystem, contributing to the socio-economic development of the locality and the whole country.

QCET has been honored to be awarded the First, Second and Third Class Labor Medals; the Second Class Independence Medal; many Certificates of Merit from the Prime Minister and the People's Committee of Binh Dinh Province... which are worthy proof of the journey of "training is dedication" over the past 63 years.
