Samsung launches first training course for Vietnamese support industry

SEOUL — Samsung on Monday officially launched its first course in South Korea for Vietnamese support industry experts in collaboration with the Ministry of Industry and Trade.

The course will last for 14 weeks. Attendants will have the chance to learn about the world’s leading production processes at Samsung factories in Suwon, Gumi, and Kwangju as well as other outstanding enterprises in South Korea through similar co-operation programmes between Samsung and the Korea Institute for Advancement of Technology.

“Samsung always commits to actively play the leading role towards the development of Việt Nam’s support industry. The intensive training courses in South Korea are evidence that once again affirm the rigid co-operation between Samsung and the Vietnamese Government in promoting the growth of the support industry in Việt Nam,” said Choi Joo Ho, president of Samsung Việt Nam.

In 2018, 95 Vietnamese support industry consultants completed training courses out of a total of 200. According to the plan, 60 of the best attendants will be sent to South Korea to continue their intensive training and run future courses at home. — VNS
