The discussions were fascinating across all three sessions.
The training program consists of three thematic sessions focusing on the National E-commerce Development Master Plan for the period 2026–2030, the E-commerce Law (reviewing the period 2016–2025 to identify shortcomings and propose the enactment of a new law to improve the legal framework, ensure transparency and safety for the market), and cooperation in e-commerce training in universities. Educators will share experiences in curriculum design, interdisciplinary course integration, and strengthening ties with businesses to enhance practical skills and professional competence for students. In particular, the program will also include an in-depth discussion on models of cooperation between universities and businesses to enhance practical training, internships, and assessment of learning outcomes based on professional competence.
The "2025 E-commerce and Digital Economy Lecturer Training Program" at VKU is a testament to the continuous efforts to enhance teaching capacity and promote interdisciplinary cooperation between educational institutions, businesses, and management agencies. The event has contributed to concretizing the goals of the National Strategy for Digital Economy Development until 2025, while also providing clear direction for training, standardizing content, and developing high-quality human resources for the e-commerce sector. In the future, the organizing committee will continue to expand cooperation, develop teaching materials, and implement practical training courses, creating a foundation for knowledge dissemination and connecting the lecturer community nationwide.
