On April 23, 2023, with the support of Programme Reform of TVET in Viet Nam, the Open Camp Day was held at the College of Technology II (HVCT), with the participation of students from An Ninh High School (Long An), along with expert from GIZ – Mr. Frank Pogade, the leader of the Faculty of Labor Safety and Environment, and the vice principal of An Ninh High School.  

The event aimed to provide information about the study program Sewage and Wastewater Treatment – study program according to German standards. Through practical experiences in the field of study as well as the facilities at the college, students could have an objective view when deciding to choose this major.   

In the opening speech at the Open Camp Day, Mr. Frank emphasized the importance and current need for water treatment, along with potential career opportunities in this field. Frank provided knowledge and advice for students interested in environmental issues when choosing a college major. 

Participating in the Open Day, students had the opportunity to participate in experiential learning activities in various subjects and tasks, including working in the laboratory, experiencing virtual reality VR, and visiting the facilities on the college campus. These experiences helped students have a better understanding of the study fields and career paths available at the faculty.  

Hopefully, through practical experiential activities and listening to expert opinions, students will have an objective view of the majors they are interested in, and someday become students of the faculty.  

The Open Camp Day event at HVCT was a great success, providing high school students with the opportunity to explore study fields and potential career paths in the future, especially with the major with great potential as Sewage and Wastewater Treatment.
