With a pioneering spirit, EMG Education presented breakthrough educational solutions, collaborating with the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Education and Training to successfully implement numerous key programs. Most notably, the Integrated English Program (Project 5695: “Teaching Math, Science, and English Integratively based on the UK and Vietnam National Curricula”) has been introduced in public schools throughout the city.
After more than a decade of implementation with impressive achievements, the Integrated English Program is considered a flagship solution, playing a crucial role in the city’s educational innovation journey. The project also serves as a foundation for Ho Chi Minh City to realize the objectives of Political Bureau Conclusion 91-KL/TW and Decision 2371/QD-TTg regarding “Making English the second language in schools from 2025–2035, with a vision toward 2045.”
In addition to showcasing the Integrated English Program as a breakthrough in English teaching and learning, EMG Education also emphasized its pioneering role in applying modern educational technologies. The exhibition featured smart digital learning solutions such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Virtual and Augmented Reality (VR/AR), 3D models, and Metaverse classrooms. These technologies not only optimize teaching and learning experiences but also equip students with adaptability, creative thinking, and confidence for global integration in the digital era, aligning with the city’s digital transformation orientation under Resolutions 57-NQ/TW and 71-NQ/TW.
