“Ready for work” is a project conducted by the Hanoi Industrial Vocational College in coordination with Plan International Vietnam.

Many of Hanoi’s disadvantaged youth from the Hanoi Industrial Vocational College will receive support through vocational skills training and job opportunities from the “Ready for Work - Covid-19 recovery and digital economy” project.

Following the success of the “Bridges to the Future” project funded by Google.org through PIV, the city’s college will receive an amount of VND2.2 billion ($88,450) from Standard Chartered Foundation (SCF) and PIV for the 2022-23 period.

The project focuses on three main objectives: to equip disadvantaged youth with market-relevant, new and in-demand skills for, during, and after Covid-19 and the digital economy. The private sector and government institutions are committed to providing relevant support to young job seekers. Families, technical and vocational education and training (TVET) providers, and employers support positive standards and practices for the inclusion of disadvantaged youth.
