On the morning of March 30, the Center for Overseas Labor (Colab) - Ministry of Home Affairs in coordination with the Department of Home Affairs of Can Tho City organized the opening ceremony of the Non-profit Program Training Facility for workers going to work abroad, and also opened the first training course for students participating in the IM Japan and EPS Programs.
Speaking at the ceremony, Deputy Minister of Home Affairs Vu Chien Thang said that in the atmosphere of the whole country urgently implementing the Resolution of the XIV Congress and the Strategic Resolutions of the Central Government, the Ministry of Home Affairs has focused resources on coordinating with departments, ministries, branches and localities to implement tasks to complete the goals assigned by the Party and Government.
The Ministry identifies programs to send workers to work abroad in non-profit forms, implementing international agreements as a practical solution to create jobs, increase income, and at the same time be associated with training and sustainable human resource development.
The Deputy Minister requested relevant agencies to focus on building a facility in Can Tho into a "regional training facility", effectively implementing the "human resource cycle" strategy: Training - sending - working abroad, promoting the resources of workers after returning home; contributing to the sustainable development of the Mekong Delta region.
Director of the Center for Overseas Labor Dang Huy Hong said that non-profit programs sending workers to work abroad have outstanding advantages in low costs, working conditions and good income.
However, recruitment and training activities mainly in Hanoi inadvertently create barriers in terms of distance and travel costs for labor in the South.
The training facility in Can Tho is a solution to remove this difficulty, bringing the state's employment and social security policies closer to the people, especially policy beneficiaries in the Southwest region" - Mr. Dang Huy Hong shared.
