It is expected that universities will not be allowed to enroll more than 5% of the announced target.
The Ministry of Education and Training announces the draft Circular regulating the determination of enrollment quantities to implement the Law on Higher Education and the amended Law on Vocational Education in 2025. The draft reflects the orientation of enrollment management based on training capacity and substantive quality, based on standardized criteria for facilities, training area and teaching staff.
The draft has many notable new points such as determining separate enrollment quotas for the head office and each branch; clarifying regulations on co-hosted lecturers with specific coefficients, conditions and principles of use; unifying criteria for determining enrollment associated with the Standard of higher education institutions, taking lecturers with doctoral degrees as standards and stipulating a minimum training floor area of 2.8 m2/student converted.
The determination of enrollment targets is shifted to groups of majors and training majors, especially tightening with health, law, pedagogy and doctoral training majors; and at the same time linking increased enrollment conditions with output quality such as dropout rates and employment after graduation. The draft also allows exceeding targets within certain limits to increase flexibility, while still ensuring strict control of training quality.

Ministry of Education and Training proposes heavy-labor allowance for practical teachers
The Ministry of Education and Training has sent to the Ministry of Justice for appraisal the Draft Decree on salary and allowance policies for teachers, which clearly stipulates heavy, hazardous, and dangerous allowances for practical teachers, especially in the vocational education sector. Practical teachers teaching in rooms, workshops, or businesses will be entitled to allowances if they work in environments with health and safety risks.
The draft clearly states the heavy, toxic, and dangerous factors such as exposure to chemicals, toxic gases, metal dust, noisy environments, vibrations, harsh temperatures, risk of disease infection, radiation, radiation, electromagnetic fields... These conditions directly affect the health and psychology of teachers, while for a long time, the remuneration regime for the group of practical teachers has not been commensurate.
The draft stipulates 4 levels of allowances from 0.1-0.4 of the base salary level, calculated according to the number of practical teaching hours and paid for the same monthly salary period. This flexible calculation method aims to ensure fairness, encourage teachers to directly teach practical teaching, and at the same time contribute to improving income, stabilizing the staff and improving the quality of vocational training.
