Vocational skills go hand in hand with digital skills

While many people mention that AI can replace some positions and professions in the future; however, trainers say that there is no risk of AI completely replacing humans, because each profession has a narrow window that only humans can perform perfectly.

In some industries such as healthcare, AI is still predicted to not be able to replace humans.

The labor market is changing as technology shifts the demand for labor from medium skills to high skills, requiring complex analytical and management skills. However, schools and training centers still have many limitations when the training program update cycle is 2 years, while technology and the market change very quickly, job structures change, requiring training to be updated and adapted promptly.

Associate Professor Dr. Nguyen Gia Nhu, Principal of the School of Technology and Engineering, Duy Tan University, said that universities are facing many major challenges in the face of AI development.

To adapt to the impact of AI, according to Mr. Nguyen Gia Nhu, universities need to deploy many synchronous solutions. First of all, training programs need to be updated in the direction of AI by including courses on machine learning, natural language processing, computer vision and data science in the curriculum, while integrating multidisciplinary skills such as combining technology with economics , medicine, education, etc. so that students understand how to apply AI in practice.

Another direction is to strengthen cooperation with businesses so that students can intern in real AI projects, invite experts from businesses to teach, organize seminars or guide final projects, helping students not only learn theory but also grasp practical needs, reducing the risk of unemployment.

Vice Rector of the University of Science and Technology, Danang University Nguyen Hong Hai said that applying science and technology to teaching and educational management helps improve the quality of learning and training. AI not only helps students learn faster, but also helps develop soft skills such as creativity, critical thinking and problem solving - key factors for future success.

At the University of Economics, University of Danang , accounting is one of the majors that is often mentioned in the face of the risk that AI can replace humans. However, Associate Professor Dr. Le Van Huy, Principal of the school, affirmed that AI helps simplify the process but cannot replace humans. “The school applies many teaching methods, thereby helping students adapt quickly and promptly to technology trends and modern skills, solving difficult and complicated steps in the work process so there is no fear of being replaced by AI,” Dr. Le Van Huy affirmed.
