Called "9 +4", this program derives from the fact that the Vietnamese youth begin your startup more lately than the world’s youth due to levels of education as well as late career orientation.
According Dean of FPT University Le Truong Tung, the career separation under the 9 +4 model would help solve social psychology of flocking to universities, ease inter- college and reduce time for startup.
Attending the 9 +4 program, students will be trained skills and professional expertise which enable them to work immediately as well as follow the inter- university program lasting 1.5-2 years.
The head of FPT University said that 9 +4 model was being applied in many countries. Annually, recruiters accept the 9th-grade students to learn at Polytechnic in Singapore under this model.
It is expected that the 9+4 program will be deployed in 2014. Accordingly, graduates of secondary school can follow the flexible model without further education. After 3 years, students can get vocational certificates and if studying another year, they will be granted full-time vocational college certificates. Under this program, students will learn 4 high school subjects as well as be apprenticed to receive high school diplomas required by the Ministry of Education and Training.
The sectors such as software testing and programmer are expected to train. Students will be introduced jobs after graduation. Tuition of FPT Polytechnic is about VND4 million per semester. Tuition of the 9 +4 program may be equivalent or less.
