According to the assessment of Mr. Truong Anh Dung, Deputy Director of the General Department of Vocational Education (Ministry of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs), along with the strong development of industrial revolution 4.0, the issues of Jobs will change, many jobs disappear and many new ones are born, so the list of training and skills of workers must also change to adapt.
