In his speech, General Cuong recognized the department’s achievements. He noted that one of the important requirements to build a modernized military is to have modern military servicemen. It is an important task for the military education and training sector. To do that, the Department of Military School Management should further their studies, grasp situations, and give timely recommendations to higher levels to improve the quality of education and training work and military school building. It should also work closely with units, agencies, academies, and schools in the military to complete strategies, plans and submit them to higher levels for approval. Moreover, it must focus on raising its personnel’s expertise and its advisory role.
