According to the agreement, Pearson will transfer advanced assessment technologies that integrate AI applications in test bank development, automated grading, and deep data analytics. At the same time, both sides will continue to expand the Integrated Education Model, which combines Vietnam’s national curriculum (issued by the Ministry of Education and Training) with the Pearson Edexcel international framework. This initiative aims to enhance English proficiency and global integration skills for Vietnamese students.
This partnership directly supports Vietnam’s strategic educational policies and initiatives, including Resolution No. 57-NQ/TW and Resolution No. 71-NQ/TW on digital transformation in education, as well as Conclusion No. 91-KL/TW of the Politburo and Decision No. 2371/QĐ-TTg recently approved by the Prime Minister on “Introducing English as a Second Language in Schools for the Period 2025–2035, with Vision to 2045.”
“We are delighted to partner with EMG Education to bring Pearson’s most advanced educational technologies to Vietnam,” said a representative of Pearson. “By combining our global expertise with EMG Education’s deep understanding of the Vietnamese education system, we believe this collaboration will drive transformative impact—supporting students and teachers in the digital era, while contributing to the nation’s key educational goals.”
