Italian region provides training, internship for Vietnamese students
(VOVworld) - Italian universities and enterprises will increase their engagement in training Vietnamese students following a pact signed on Wednesday. Representatives of Modena University (Unimore) and the trade-industry office in north Italy’s Emilia-Romagna region (Unioncamere Emilia-Romagna) sealed the deal in Modena, witnessed by Vietnamese Ambassador to Italy Cao Chinh Thien and Italian Ambassador to Vietnam Cecilia Piccioni. The pact is a result of one year’s efforts to connect educational facilities to companies. It will provide financial assistance to Vietnamese students, especially science and technology majors, to study and take internships in the region.
Unimore rector Ange Andrisano said the cooperation model shows how universities are capable of stimulating international ties and exchanges as well as supporting local economic initiatives. Unioncamere Emilia-Romagna Chairman Maurizio Torreggiani said he favors providing training related to made-in-Italy technologies to young Vietnamese.
