According to Deputy Minister Le Quoc Hung, as the nation enters a new era of development, the academy must closely follow and effectively implement the Party’s new thinking and guidance regarding breakthroughs in education and training, science and technology, innovation and digital transformation, as well as proactively apply the outcomes to the task of safeguarding security and order during the country’s new revolutionary stage.

Given its rich traditions, the Academy must swiftly seize emerging opportunities and closely follow the leadership and direction of the Public Security Central Party Committee and the Ministry of Public Security to build itself into a national key higher education institution and serve as the flagship leading the education and training system of the People’s Public Security Forces.

The Academy should vigorously innovate its educational and training mindset, effectively implement the Party’s policies on lifelong learning, digital learning and foreign-language training. It should also deeply reform educational contents and methods to ensure that learning goes hand in hand with practice, and theory is closely linked with reality.

Deputy Minister Le Quoc Hung suggested that the Academy focus on building a contingent of education managers and teach staff with strong ethics, firm political stance and sharp theoretical and professional expertise. All officers and students of the institution should be able to conduct research, teach and work in international environments, and have the ability to innovate, master technology, lead, inspire and guide thinking, thereby creating a powerful new momentum and a qualitative breakthrough in training quality.
