In 2008, the HCM City Education and Training Department planned to recruit more than 4,000 teachers, but it finally could only recruit 60% of the demand from two competitions. Many teachers were recruited, but then they did not take office.

Every year, the HCM City University of Education and Saigon University can produce 1,000 teachers. Meanwhile, every year, the quota in each university for training nursery school teachers is only 100.

The candidates for the training branches have to take exams under group M. Besides mathematics and literature exams, examinees also have to go through exams to test their talents.

Dr. Dinh Thi Tu, Head of the Pre-school Education Faculty under the HCM City University of Education, said that the demand for teachers and managers, for pre-school education, proves to be very high, while the university graduates cannot meet the demand.

Over the last 10 years, the regular training system of the university has had 10 courses with 736 students, of which 388 students have graduated five training courses. Meanwhile, the non-regular training system’s scale has been developing well, with more than 8,000 students and only 3,000 that have graduated. The classes are not only organized in HCM City, but also in other provinces in the east and west of the southern region, as well as the central region.

Nguyen Thi Kim Thanh, MA, Head of the Pre-school Education Division under the HCM City Education and Training Department, admitted that the teachers trained by the HCM City University of Education can all be recruited by educational establishments, who have partially met the high demand for teachers in the city.

In order to meet the high demand of society and improve the training quality of the Pre-school Education Faculty, the HCM City University of Education has kicked off a project exchanging lecturers with Swedish Jonkoping University, and sent good lecturers to the US, France and South Korea to learn experience from these countries.
