Speaking at the ceremony, HUST President, Associate Professor Dr Huynh Quyet Thang, emphasised the programme’s strategic importance amid digital transformation and the growth of the knowledge-based economy.
He pledged that the university commits to collaborating on high-quality, up-to-date AI training programs meeting academic standards and practical needs; developing and assembling reputable faculty and experts for teaching and mentoring to NVIDIA standards; ensure training quality and issuing certificates in line with regulations; and partnering to build a sustainable AI human resources training and development ecosystem.
NIC Director Vu Quoc Huy noted that the programme focuses not only on international-standard AI knowledge and skills but also on practical training, applied research, and close integration of enterprise needs with human resources development.
The “AI Academy Programme for Viet Nam” aims to cultivate high-quality AI talent for digital and economic transformation, AI applications in key sectors; foster effective State-university-enterprise collaboration; enhance national competitiveness; and deepen Viet Nam's integration into global high-tech value chains.
It also seeks to build a national AI human resources network, with expanding annual training scales, forming experts to advise businesses, organizations, and localities on AI deployment—spreading the AI training model across the country.
