Over nearly 75 years of establishment and development, the Academy of Politics has trained tens of thousands of cadres for the Party, the State and the Army, as well as thousands of cadres for Laos and Cambodia. Its teaching staff all hold university degrees or higher, with nearly 80% holding postgraduate qualifications. The Academy has carried out 13 State-level projects, 54 projects under the Ministry of National Defence, more than 100 sectoral projects, and hundreds of academy-level projects; and has published numerous works contributing to safeguarding the Party’s ideological foundation.
Speaking at the meeting, General Nguyen Trong Nghia commended the efforts and outstanding achievements the Academy has attained across its three major areas: education and training, scientific research, and building a transparent and strong Party organisation. He acknowledged the Academy’s efforts in thoroughly grasping and concretising the Resolution of the 13th National Party Congress, the Resolution of the 11th Congress of the Army’s Party Organisation, and major guidelines on education and training; and affirmed its capability in providing advanced political-theory training for military personnel, while standardising and improving the quality of political cadres at grassroots units.
He requested that the Academy closely follow the instructions of Party General Secretary To Lam at the 12th Congress of the Army’s Party Organisation, particularly the directive emphasising “two principles of steadfastness, two focuses of enhancement, and two areas of prevention”. In the country’s new era of development, the army’s political cadres must further elevate their thinking, accelerate innovation, acquire modern knowledge and engage in extensive international integration, while firmly upholding the Party’s ideological foundation and the qualities of Uncle Ho’s soldiers, according to General Nguyen Trong Nghia.
