What does VietAbroader do? VIETABROADERCAREER CONFERENCE 2014
Why VietAbroaderCareer Conference (VACC) 2014? Currently there is a mismatch between the demand and supply of skilled labor in Vietnam. Unemployment rate among young people in Viet Nam is estimated at 5.95%, much lower than the global youth unemployment rate of 13.1%, but still more than 3 times the adult rate (ILO, Global Unemployment Trends 2014). • Demand • More international companies are entering the Vietnamese market, with an increasing amount of foreign investment (Vietnam’s FDI inflow was $22.35 billion in 2013, 35.9% higher than that in 2012). • These multi-national corporations, together with home-grown enterprises, are creating a great need for a more dynamic and skilled labor force (63% of Vietnamese college graduates do not meet standards of corporations- CafeBiz.vn). • Supply • More and more young local Vietnamese people are attending higher education: nearly 2.2 million in 2013 (increase from 1.7 million in 2009), creating a greater supply of skilled labor in Vietnam. • Many overseas Vietnamese, Vietnamese Americans, and foreigners are interested in learning more about career opportunities in Vietnam (40% of Vietnamese students go back from abroad to work in Vietnam- Dan Tri News). VACC will bridge the current gap between the demand and supply of skilled labor in Vietnam VIETABROADERCAREER CONFERENCE 2014
