Ground-breaking for Elevator Training Center

KONE Corporation and ASSIST joined government officials and community stakeholders for the groundbreaking ceremony of the new Elevator Training Center for the ‘Promote Technical Education Reform of Mechanics to Professional Technicians’ Project of KONE.

With the training center as one of its core milestones, the public-private partnership (PPP) proposes to improve and promote technical training in Vietnam through a dual education model and advance safety and quality of testing and maintaining elevator service. It aims at motivating students to think and focus on the quality of their labor, towards becoming technicians from manual workforce as mechanics.

The project will partner with the Ly Tu Trong College (LTTC), a leading training academy in the city, to establish the Elevator Training Academy as part of LTTC’s mechanical department. It will feature a five-story building, equipped with a state-of-the-art elevator facility.
