The mark of the school once named Ba To
(Baonghean) - After the Tet Mau Than general offensive and uprising and the attacks of the army and people in the South in 1968, the US imperialists were forced to change their strategy from "Local War" to "Vietnamization of the war", our people's resistance war against the US to save the country entered a fierce phase. In the North, the US imperialists frantically escalated their bombardment in an attempt to prevent support for the Southern battlefield. At this time, along with the growth of the provincial armed forces, the Nghe An Provincial Military School was established on August 22, 1969.
When it was first established, the school was named "Ba To Military Training Team" with the following tasks: Training squad and platoon officers for the armed forces in the province; training and fostering officers in charge of guerrillas and self-defense in units and localities; and training officers in the whole province.
From its establishment until the end of the resistance war against the US to save the country, the Ba To Military Training Team (in 1991, it was changed to Nghe An Military School) trained, fostered, and coached 1,710 cadres at all levels (infantry); 49 military classes for 1,057 cadres, 520 commune cadres, 2,705 cadres from company to battalion of local troops, more than 3,638 cadres from platoon to company, meeting the military cadre requirements for the provincial armed forces, contributing to the achievements of the army and people of Nghe An during the years of resistance of the country.
Since 1977, in response to the requirements of the new situation, Nghe An Military School has carried out the task of training, fostering, and training non-commissioned officers, reserve officers, and armed forces for districts, cities, and towns in the province. Fostering knowledge of national defense and security for subjects 3, 4, and 5; fostering knowledge of national defense and security for Laotian grassroots cadres, training commune, ward, and town commanders... In particular, the school has made an important contribution to training "strong soldiers" to establish Division 441 - Dong Loc group. In addition, with the function of educating military and defense knowledge, over the past time, tens of thousands of teachers and university and college students have been trained and fostered under the roof of the school that grew up during the war and was once called Ba To.
After 40 years since its establishment, Nghe An Provincial Military School has trained, fostered and coached more than 35 thousand officers and students. The school has had strong and comprehensive development. When it was first established, the school only had 25 managers, teachers and service staff. Up to now, it has had a team of managers, teachers and service staff who have received basic training, have a strong political stance, and increasingly high professional qualifications, meeting the requirements of a provincial military school in the renovation period. Since its inception, the school has moved its location 4 times. Currently, the school's premises are spacious, the environment is increasingly formal, green, clean and beautiful. In 2011, in the competition of green, clean and beautiful formal units of military schools organized by the Military Region 4 Command, the school won first prize.

Entering a new phase, promoting the spirit of a victorious unit, the school was awarded the National Defense Medal by the President. In order to successfully complete the assigned tasks, in recent times, the school has determined the motto "Fundamental, practical, solid" associated with the goal of "Good teaching, good learning".
This is considered a breakthrough in improving the quality of training and education. Focus on innovating leadership methods, working style and manners, building a team of cadres who are truly pioneering and exemplary in terms of qualities, ethics and lifestyles "Words go hand in hand with actions" associated with implementing the Resolution of the 4th Central Committee (11th term) on "Some urgent issues in Party building today" and Directive 03 CT/BCT of the Politburo on "continuing to study and follow the moral example of Ho Chi Minh", building a strong and clean school Party organization and comprehensively strong, contributing to the successful implementation of the Party's two strategic tasks in the new period.
