- Regarding curriculum: The curriculum framework structure should correspond to the learning outcomes suitable for each ngành; it needs to increase international integration, include comparative analysis, be comprehensive, reflect critical thinking, and keep pace with international standards.
- Solutions are needed to strengthen the workforce with qualified academic qualifications to meet the stringent requirements for opening new master's and doctoral programs.
- Review and reorganize training programs and specializations to make the most of existing resources.
Representing the leadership of Vietnam National University, Hanoi, Professor Nguyen Dinh Duc (Head of Training Department) highly appreciated the initiative of the Faculty of Humanities in organizing a conference on training to listen to the very relevant, practical, and heartfelt opinions of the faculties/departments. Training is a key activity, closely linked to research; training and development are essential for the development of personnel and international publications. Therefore, the University needs specific orientations, strategies, and solutions for training in the short and long term, based on the strategy of Vietnam National University, Hanoi, updating to international standards but also suitable to practical needs and ensuring the principle that "quality is key and core". Concluding the conference, Rector Prof. Dr. Hoang Anh Tuan thanked the leaders of Vietnam National University, Hanoi for their close attention and guidance. In the coming time, the university's training work will focus on expanding in scale while preserving core values, prioritizing quality development, and affirming its brand.
