According to Deputy Minister of Education and Training Hoang Minh Son, this online conference gave higher education administrators in Vietnam and UK a venue to discuss challenges and opportunities for digitalization of higher education, higher education growth, and policies to address those issues. The insights of the conference will serve as a basis for the Ministry of Education and Training and Vietnamese universities to devise a digital transformation strategy.
