📋 Tender Overview
The Ministry of Education and Training (GDDT) is collecting comments on a draft Circular on transfer between vocational high schools, intermediate schools, colleges and universities. This draft regulates transferable training and recognition of learning results between training levels, including: principles of transferability; form of connection; recognition of learning results, credit conversion, learning roadmap, quality assurance activities. Download The Ministry of Education and Training proposes that learners at a higher level can transfer to complete a program at a lower level according to their academic and career needs and labor market requirements. The Ministry of Education and Training said that the draft Circular places transfer training in a unified whole between vocational education and higher education, on the basis of the Vietnam National Qualifications Framework, output standards of the training program and quality assurance requirements. At the same time, it emphasizes the mechanism for recognizing learning results, transferring credits, and preserving accumulated modules. The spirit of the draft is to respect the intrinsic learning results of learners; Learners do not have to re-study content that has been assessed to meet standards if there is equivalence in learning volume, duration, professional content and output standards. This is an approach suitable for lifelong learning and flexible learning, but still maintains the requirements for quality and competency standards of each training level. Protects the legitimate rights of learners, reduces waste in training, and creates conditions for lifelong learning. One of the contents in the draft that is having different opinions is proposing that learners at a higher level can transfer to complete the program at a lower level according to their learning needs, career and market requirements. labor school. The goal of this proposal is to protect the legitimate rights of learners, reduce waste in training and create conditions for lifelong learning. According to the Ministry of Education and Training, in modern education, learners can study in many environments, many programs and many different times to suit their needs and aspirations. In fact, many people have a need to return to study after many years of working, studying for additional professional certificates, studying technical programs or practicing in new fields, switching between professions, accumulating learning results in each stage... Therefore, if a course has been assessed to meet standards, there needs to be a mechanism to properly record, preserve and use it, instead of forcing learners to re-study the same content. This approach is also consistent with the international trend of credit recognition and accreditation. learning outcomes, saving time and costs for learners, while encouraging lifelong learning, flexible learning and mobility between study and career paths. In particular, in the context of digital transformation, digital learning records, credit data and quality assurance systems allow the recognition of learning results to be transparent, grounded and post-auditable. The draft does not design a training flow from high level to low level, nor does it encourage students currently enrolled in higher education to move to lower level education as a training trend. The core issue here is to recognize accumulated learning results, so that learners can use the knowledge and skills that have been assessed to meet standards in a learning path more suitable to personal conditions, career needs or job position. For example, a learner has completed a number of basic industry courses at the university level but has not completed the university level training program but then transfers to a college program suitable to the immediate career needs. The draft Circular proposes that training institutions may consider exempting a number of equivalent modules, but learners must still be admitted or meet the programs entry requirements, must still complete missing modules, practice, internship and output standards of the college program before being awarded a diploma. Thus, this is a mechanism to recognize learning results, reducing the need to re-learn equivalent content, thereby saving learning time but still having to complete the programs output standards. Recognizing credits does not mean loosening standards. On the contrary, this regulation requires training institutions to more closely compare output standards, learning content, learning volume, assessment conditions and accountability. The Ministry of Education and Training said that the draft Circular is in the process of collecting comments. When the Circular is issued, training institutions must issue specific regulations on transfer training and recognition of learning results; publicize entry conditions, conditions for recognition of courses, maximum credit rate considered for recognition, responsibilities of the professional council and input requirements of learners. Recognition is not done on a mass basis, is not automatic and is not based only on the name of the course. Each case must be considered based on academic records, course outlines, credit volume, duration, professional content, assessment methods and output standards. The training institution is responsible for the quality of the accreditation decision; ngStudents are responsible for completing the remaining requirements of the training program. This mechanism needs to be associated with digital learning records, credit data and educational databases to serve storage, verification, post-audit, inspection, testing and evaluation of training quality./.
