(Baonghean.vn) - In the context of the increasingly strong wave of investment from Japan in Vietnam in general and Nghe An in particular, anticipating the trend of high-quality human resource demand to meet Japanese joint venture projects, Van Xuan University of Technology "joined hands" with businesses to implement the "Japanese standard university training program".

Van Xuan University of Technology has become a pioneer in innovating training programs according to new trends, the first university in the Central region to implement a Japanese standard university training program and signed a commitment to ensure job placement at Japanese enterprises after students graduate.

What is special about the Japanese standard training program? This training program gives students the opportunity to access leading educational methods and environments, ensuring that after graduation they will have high professional qualifications and necessary skills to take on the best positions in Japanese enterprises.

Students of the Japanese standard program are trained in Japanese in a systematic way - this is an outstanding advantage, helping students access Japan's scientific, technical and economic advances in depth.

Right from the first year, students are taught Japanese language, culture, skills, and Japanese thinking. Upon graduation, students will have a minimum Japanese language proficiency of N3; and have the ability to work with employers from Japan. Students are not only trained in Japanese but also trained and practiced in culture, thinking, communication, working style, and discipline in Japanese enterprises.

Students experience “corporate semesters” at Japanese companies to perfect their knowledge and skills in a real working environment. They are regularly exposed to, trained and practiced at Japanese companies - the future employers of the students themselves. The culture of the country and Japanese companies places great importance on discipline, honesty, loyalty, diligence, carefulness and detail; thereby helping students to be independent and develop their own long-term future.

Professional training environment with the team of lecturers of Van Xuan University of Technology are Japanese and Vietnamese lecturers and experts, with a lot of experience working in Japanese enterprises, directly training and guiding the school's students according to the Japanese standard model.

Van Xuan University of Technology also advocates building lesson plans as well as preparing facilities and equipment suitable for the standard training program, creating conditions for students to study and research in an environment suitable for their orientation. Class size of less than 30 students/class allows lecturers and students to interact directly.
