The center will launch advanced and high-quality training programs, aiming to narrow the gap between university education and the real demand.
It will work to support technology transfer from Japanese enterprises to Vietnamese firms through enhancing technology business activities between the two countries’ partners.
It will also give consultancy to the two sides’ enterprises in recruiting laborers, and support SHTP in developing high-quality human resources serving socio-economic development in HCM City in particular and in Vietnam in general.
According to Le Hoai Quoc - head of the SHTP’s management board, VJTC will train high-quality human resources in specialized knowledge and practical skills, thus meeting the demand of human resources of high-tech enterprises in the era of Industry 4.0.
The center will focus on robot and automation industry through implementing official development assistance (ODA) projects, which will be funded by the Japanese Government and the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA).
The center is hoped to become the leading robot industry and automation-training center in Vietnam in the next five years, and in Southeast Asia in the next ten years.
On the occasion, the SHTP’s training center signed agreements with Nidec group, Mitsubishi Electronics Vietnam and Tan Phat Automation JSC on cooperation in training and developing human resources.
