Dien Bien Brings Livestock Training to Rural Communities

Dien Bien province is holding vocational training classes near residential areas, allowing rural workers to learn skills while continuing their work. In late October 2026, the Dien Bien Vocational Education and Continuing Education Center jointly organized a pig farming course in Thanh An commune. It drew 35 rural workers, mainly from Bông village.

The course focuses on livestock knowledge and practical skills, helping participants apply what they learn to production at home. Local authorities are also expanding training to include livestock and poultry farming, safe vegetable cultivation, mushroom growing, fish farming and some construction trades to suit local production conditions.

In 2026, Vocational Education and Continuing Education Center No. 1 was assigned a target of training 1,330 workers. From March to June, the center held 13 courses in 11 communes and wards.

Under the relevant projects of the national target program for socioeconomic development in ethnic minority and mountainous areas, vocational training should be linked to employment and match workers’ needs and local development conditions. Bringing classes to local communities and strengthening practical skills training are measures aimed at improving workers’ productive capacity and livelihoods.
