The current period marks a strong transformation in vocational education towards practicality, flexibility, and integration, requiring a sustainable strategy for teaching staff development. At the Central Industry and Trade College (MITC), the strategy of developing core teachers is identified as the key to improving training quality, contributing to fulfilling the mission “Quality is our mission – Success is our destination.”
Affirming the Strategic Role of Core Teaching Staff
In the 2024-2025 academic year, MITC continues to strongly implement classroom observation activities for core teachers, considering this one of the breakthrough solutions to strengthen teaching quality and professional development of the staff. This is not just a regular professional activity but a long-term strategy, tied to the school’s vision of building a substantive, effective learning environment centered on learners.
The core teaching staff at MITC consists of instructors with solid professional qualifications, creative and flexible teaching methods, and the ability to lead and spread positive energy among the team. They are not only excellent in teaching but also role models in learning spirit, innovation, and professional leadership in each specialized department.
Classroom Observation – From Professional Activity to Academic Development Space
MITC continues to strongly implement classroom observation activities for core teachers, considering this one of the breakthrough solutions to strengthen teaching quality and professional development of the staff.
Classroom observation activities at MITC go beyond evaluating teaching sessions and have been elevated to become an open academic space where instructors share experiences, provide constructive feedback, and develop together. Each observation session is systematically organized with the participation of academic leaders, managers, and teachers from various departments.
The close combination of observation and professional feedback helps the school build a continuous professional development process. The focus areas include organizing active learning activities, applying information technology in teaching, enhancing professional capacity for learners, and especially the ability to design practical lessons that meet business requirements.
Creating a Sharing Culture – Promoting Sustainable Development
One of the core values of this activity is contributing to building a sharing culture within the school. MITC recognizes that only when each teacher is ready to share experiences, listen to feedback, and learn together, can teaching quality truly be elevated.
Through core teacher classroom observations, instructors gain access to a rich resource library, including sample lesson plans, effective classroom models, images of actual teaching sessions, and experience initiatives compiled after each evaluation session. This is a valuable resource for periodic and long-term professional development.
Moreover, participating in evaluation and feedback helps young instructors shorten their experience accumulation process, quickly access modern teaching methods, and standardize according to professional-application orientation.

Clearly recognizing the requirements for vocational education innovation in the digital era and international integration, MITC aims to build a teaching staff capable of teaching according to national, ASEAN, and international standards. The core teachers are the backbone in leading method innovation activities, developing training programs, participating in scientific research, and cooperating with businesses.
This is also the team actively participating in international training programs, regional and national professional workshops, thereby expanding professional connections, updating modern educational trends, and improving foreign language skills and information technology – essential elements in the digital transformation era.
Enhancing Professional Responsibility – Spreading Innovation Motivation
Classroom observation activities not only help teachers improve their pedagogical methods but also awaken professional responsibility and pride in the profession. The presence of the board of directors, training department, and colleagues in observation sessions creates positive pressure, encouraging teachers to prepare thoroughly, innovate creatively, and perfect teaching skills.
At the same time, in-depth, practical feedback from managers and experienced teachers is also an important factor helping each instructor identify strengths, areas for improvement, and develop appropriate individual professional development plans.
Long-term Vision – Building Quality Foundation from People
In the coming time, MITC will continue to promote core teacher classroom observation activities towards standardization, specialization, and alignment with vocational education quality accreditation criteria.
MITC clearly identifies there is no sustainable training quality without a truly quality teaching staff. Therefore, investing in core teachers is investing in the school’s future, a solid foundation for MITC to continue affirming its position as a high-quality college in the South Central and Central Highlands regions.
In the near future, MITC will continue to promote core teacher classroom observation activities towards standardization, specialization, and alignment with vocational education quality accreditation criteria. Additionally, the school will invest strongly in teacher training, creating conditions for core teachers to participate in advanced courses, international training programs, and applied scientific research.
The strategy of building and developing core teachers has been bringing positive and clear changes in teaching quality at MITC. Not only contributing to improving learning effectiveness for students, but this activity also spreads a positive, cohesive, and inspiring academic culture among the teaching staff.
With strategic vision and commitment to continuous innovation, the Central Industry and Trade College continues to affirm its pioneering role in building a modern, high-quality vocational education model for the benefit of learners and the sustainable development of national human resources.
