Three Vietnamese students will participate in the final round of the Microsoft Office Specialist Word Championship 2014 (MOSWC) in California, the US, from July 27-30.

The information was released at the awards ceremony of the national MOSWC 2014 co-organized by IIG Vietnam and HCM City’s University of Foreign Languages and Information Technology.

They are Tran Duc Duy, 10th grader from Dinh Thien Ly School, who topped at MOS PowerPoint, Bui Huu Hong Hai from the University of Foreign Languages and Information Technology who won first prize at MOS Word, and Tran Minh Tien from the Banking University of HCMC.

Nguyen Vinh Hien, Deputy Minister of Education and Training, said that the competition provides an intellectual playground for the younger generation in Vietnam, thereby enhancing computer skills and work performance for the future labor force in Vietnam.

The MOSWC helped Vietnam standardise office computer skills for Vietnamese students to meet international standards, he noted, adding it is also an opportunity for schools to modernise their computer training programmes.
