During the course of its 20 years of operations, this university has provided 400-500 IT workers for the labour market each year. However, the university leader said this is just a drop in the ocean since the labour demand from just four large enterprises totalled as many as 10,000 workers.

Over the last three years, job vacancies in the IT-software sector have increased by 47 percent per year, but the number of workers has grown by only 8 percent. In 2018, as much as 80,000 IT engineers graduated, but the market is still short by 70,000 workers. So what are the causes of this bottleneck?

The Fourth Industrial Revolution is creating a fairer playground for IT companies globally. Vietnamese training institutions will fall behind if they are not quick to adapt to modern demands./.
