General characteristics of the professional training of the social work in Vietnam

Abstract

Social work in Vietnam is currently considered a promising new science and profession going through a period of institutionalization. Along with evolving charitable activities, there is a need for training social workers, which is confirmed by the need to provide highly qualified assistance to people in difficult situations. Social policy is one of the most important policy systems of each country, which are developed, managed and implemented by the state. In addition, social policy is considered as an instrument of the state’s political system to solve social problems, the implementation of the state’s social functions. We give a review of the system status of future bachelors of social work professional training, as well as the policies of the government and ministries of Vietnam to maintain and develop social initiatives. We conclude that the decisions, directions and prospects for the development of policy preparation in the field of practical social work and the training of professional personnel for it in Vietnam in the near future are a rather promising strategy supported by the Government of the country at all levels, as they are considered as an important basis to develop the social work of Vietnam during its international integration.
