At the 44th World Skills Competition organised in 2017 in Abu Dhabi (UAE), contestant Tran Nguyen Ba Phuoc was the sole contestant of the Viet Nam delegation to receive a bronze medal for IT Software Solutions Vocation.
Samsung Vietnam has supported Vietnamese contestants and experts in participating in the World Skills Competition since the 43rd World Skills Competition in 2015 in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Samsung Vietnam directly supported representative contestants to participate in training in South Korea.
Aside from supporting contestants in the World Skills Competition, Samsung Vietnam also executes many projects intending to improve the quality of Vietnamese human resources, such as donating Samsung Lab study rooms and supporting education for several universities to facilitate conditions for their students to access modern IT knowledge, as well as granting Samsung talent scholarships with opportunities to intern at the Samsung Vietnam Mobile phone Research and Development Centre. — VNS
