Exploring the Transnational Education Landscape of Vietnam and its Potential for International Cooperation

Tóm tắt

The Prime Minister has recently issued Decision No. 1705/QĐ-TTg dated December 31, 2024, approving the Education Development Strategy until 2030, with a vision toward 2045. The strategic objective is for Vietnam's education system to achieve an advanced level within the Asian region by 2030 and reach a globally advanced standard by 2045. Transnational education (TNE) plays a crucial role in the successful implementation of this strategy, enhancing educational quality and promoting international integration. This paper synthesizes disparate studies and examines legal documents, policies, and strategic reports, as well as conducts a comprehensive analysis of specific cases. Although TNE in Vietnam has developed over the past 25 years, its scale remains limited compared to its potential and the evolving demands of higher education planning. Adjusting regulatory frameworks and policies, enhancing university autonomy, and expanding international cooperation in education and investment are urgent requirements for TNE to fulfill its intended role within the national education system.
