Speaking at the Opening Ceremony, General Secretary and President To Lam emphasized that the training class was held in the first year of implementing the Resolution of the 14th Party Congress. The Congress confirmed Determine goals and tasks for the entire term. The Central Government has made decisions to remove bottlenecks and free up resources. The decisive task now is to organize implementation: turn policies into feasible programs, synchronized actions and specific results; transform the Partys will into the development of the country and a better life for the people.

That requirement requires strategic-level officials to have higher vision, bravery and action capacity. Each policy decision must clearly state the bottlenecks, responsibilities and implementation results. Each student comrade not only leads an industry, field or locality, but is also a member of the Central Executive Committee - the Partys highest leadership body between two Congresses. Therefore, we must think at the national level, act for the common good, and together with the Central Committee, be responsible to the Party and the people for important decisions and the future of the country. Learning originates from that responsibility. Each Central Committee member must put common interests first. The General Secretary and President emphasized that strategic-level officials must have strong political courage; The higher you are in the position, the more steadfast you must be, the more steadfast you must be in the face of difficulties, the more you must maintain your principles; the more you are under pressure, the more you must put the interests of the Party, the nation and the people first and foremost. The higher the position, the greater the impact of the decision, the higher the requirement for self-study, self-training, self-reflection, and self-correction. Lifelong learning is not just to know more, but to see rightly, think deeply, make right decisions and act effectively. If you dont learn and test yourself in practice, experience can become inertia, old knowledge can become a limit, old ways of doing things that were successful can become a resistance. Appreciating the combination of thematic research, discussion and practical surveys, the General Secretary and President require that the class cannot only be one-way communication, much less to complete prescribed procedures; This must be a place for frank exchange, in-depth dialogue, linking theory with practice; Connect knowledge and experience with new issues of the country. The value of the program is not in the amount of information, but in new perspectives, better decisions and higher results. The General Secretary and President recommended that comrades and students focus on fulfilling 3 requirements: each comrade needs to bring to class the most difficult tasks of the industry, field and locality; Compare knowledge, experience and new approaches to determine what needs to be promoted, what needs to be adjusted, and what issues need to be decided decisively. Learning must be linked to work, responsibilities and results of serving the people; Do not study in general terms, do not avoid thorny issues. Comrades and students need to frankly state their opinions, share both successes and failures, and analyze the causes and lessons; both as a learner and as a contributor to knowledge to the collective; Through exchanges, we must broaden our vision, strengthen solidarity, and improve coordination between all levels and sectors; argue toclarify the problem, find better solutions. After the course, each student needs to choose some practical issues to review the way of thinking, working, decision-making process and implementation; At the same time, build a culture
