The new regulation is stipulated at a new decree which amends Item 6, Article 31, Decree 73/2012/ND-CP, dated September 26, 2012 of the Government on the foreign cooperation and investment in education.
Earlier, foreign teachers and lecturers teaching in short-term training institutions, preschool education institutions, compulsory education institutions, vocational education institutions, and higher education institutions capitalized by foreign partners must have at least 5 years of experience in their teaching fields.
The new decree only requests that foreign teachers and lecturers teaching at vocational education institutions and higher education institutions must have at least 5 years of experience in the disciplines that they teach.
