This was the first course in 2017 (February 27, 2017 – May 25, 2017) and also the 7th training course marking the collaboration between the University of Social Sciences and Humanities and Samsung Electronics Vietnam. The course lasted 12 weeks, equivalent to 3 months, and included 13 trainees who were the most outstanding employees of Samsung Electronics Vietnam in Thai Nguyen.

The course runs from February 27th to May 24th. Students attend classes in lecture hall C506. In addition to the regular classroom curriculum, students have 10 lessons per day, and three supplementary morning sessions per week on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.

Students will be taught by four Korean teachers. During the 12 weeks of study, all students will be tested on their listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills in weeks 4, 8, and 12.

Associate Professor Tran Thi Minh Hoa presents certificates to students who have completed the course.

According to the class teacher's summary and assessment – ​​Ms. Nguyen Thuy Giang: “This course has very consistent academic abilities among the students, all achieving scores of 60 or higher, with 9 students scoring 80 or higher. The 12-week program covered books I to IV. The study time corresponded to the amount of knowledge covered, and both the teacher and the students acknowledged the tremendous effort required. Without such effort, it would be impossible to complete four books in 12 weeks, equivalent to level 4 – intermediate level II.”

“After more than 3 months of dedicated guidance from the Department of Oriental Studies, we have learned a lot about both language and culture,” shared student Dinh Thi Thuy Mui.

The ceremony featured many outstanding artistic performances by the students. These performances were created by the students themselves after diligently practicing in Korean.

This graduation ceremony marks the end of the course but also the beginning of a new phase where you will continue to learn and apply the knowledge you have learned to your work at the company, worthy of the guidance of your teachers throughout this time. I hope the next training courses will be successful, with the next course scheduled for October this year,” said Mr. Lee Cheol Ku – Vice General Director of Human Resources and Administration of the company, at the ceremony.
