Слайд 10
Maritime Education & Training Institutions in Vietnam
Supplementary information:
Vietnam
has been in the White List since the year
2000.
Modern new methods of teaching have been introduced in education and training towards better adapting to the STCW standards.
More practical training has been applied, with theoretical education reduced.
As a result, Vietnam’s M.E.T capacity has been given a boost.
Слайд 11
Maritime Education & Training Institutions in Vietnam
Existing insufficiency:
The
curriculum is mostly based on theory with little practical
training.
The theoretical education is lengthy with some subjects becoming inappropriate in comparison with international standards.
Lack of training vessels and simulation systems.
Teaching staff are short of state of the art expertise.

Maritime Certificate of Competency System in Vietnam
Supplementary information:
Vietnam
Maritime Administration has signed agreements on mutual recognition of
STCW certificates with different 20 countries & territories.
Some foreign Maritime Administration are considering cooperation with Vietnam in certification for seafarers.
Слайд 19
Maritime Certificate of Competency System in Vietnam
Existing insufficiency:
A
requirement of 36-month sea service to be eligible for
C.O.C examination at operation level is seen as lengthy and a hurdle to increasing the quantity of officers.
A requirement of only 24 month sea service for a management officer to be automatically eligible for captain or C/E C.O.C results in a considerable number of unqualified Captains & C/Es.

Seafarer Supply Management System in Vietnam
Слайд 22
Seafarer Supply Management System in Vietnam
Vietnam’s legal regulations
governing and facilitating the sending of Vietnamese labor/ seafarers
to work abroad consist of:
- Labor Law.
- Maritime Law.
- Laws on Vietnamese labor working abroad approved in 2006.
- Decision No.47/2005 dated 23 Sept. 2005 by the MOT stipulating the specific requirements for Vietnamese seafarers working on board foreign vessels and vice versa.

working on board foreign vessels at one time in
recent years:
Слайд 27
Current Situation of Vietnamese Seafarers
Taiwanese and Japanese Shipping
companies are major employers of Vietnamese Seafarers.
Vietnamese seafarers are
catching up with international standards.
It is estimated by 2010 up to 4,000 Vietnamese Seafarers would be working onboard foreign vessels at one time.
Слайд 28
Current Situation of Vietnamese Seafarers
Projects underway to upgrade
Vietnamese seafarers’ maritime profession:
Vinic: Formerly a joint-venture between the
Nippon Steel Shipping Co & VIMARU, now 100% owned by VIMARU.
VSUP, VCTC: All Japanese Seafarers’ Union-funded projects.
UT-STC: A UT HCMC-STC joint venture.
SECOJ : Training course on Japanese vessels and supervised by Japan’s Ministry of Land Infrastructure and Transport.
Other programs tailor-made by manning companies.

ship & modern facilities.
Syllabus below international standards.
Education institutes-shipping companies interactive relations still loose.
Слайд 35
Challenges Facing Manning Agency Companies
3. Increasing wastage rate
Qualified
senior officers quitting to seek shore-based jobs.
Young maritime graduates
choosing to work ashore.
Слайд 36
Challenges Facing by Manning Agency Companies
External:
1. Severe competition
from the Philippines, Myanmar, China, Indonesia.
2. International and regional
integration:
Legal disputes in relation to labor employment.
Foreign shipping companies setting up offices in Vietnam to recruit seafarers.
Слайд 37
WHY DO YOU EMPLOY VIETNAMESE SEAFARERS?
Opportunity for shipping
companies to cut costs given the low market for
the time being.
Access to a potential market of seafarers.
The Government has recently introduced policies and institutions to encourage the shipping sector including the manning business.
A number of internationally renowned shipping are building a big pool Vietnamese seafarers for their fleet.
M.E.T institutions in Vietnam are undertaking a bold reform towards international standards.
The country has been rapidly integrated into the world.
