CP TRAINING ACTIVITIES IN SOME SELECTED YEARS

TRAINING 2003
The lack of well-trained and experienced cleaner production specialists is one of the main barriers to implementation of cleaner production in Vietnamese industry. Therefore one of the key activities of the centre is to build up, through training, a resource base of national experts on Cleaner Production. In 2003, the centre provided three types of training: Participants learn in classroom, through company visit, and by working with the CP team at the participating companies

Sector specific training: this is an intensive training program organized for representatives of selected sector and potential service providers/promoters of cleaner production. Special skill training: The CP trainees from previous intensive training program or CP service providers can enrich their skill through these courses Tailor-made training: designing and providing CP related training courses per demand.

Sector specific training program The intensive training program, or sector specific training, was organized in combination with in-plant demonstration activities so that participants gained practical experience in Cleaner Production Assessments. The total duration of this training was 15 days of classroom training and between 11 to 15 days of practical work in companies. The program is designed as illustrated in table 2. Between each training module, participants and lecturers work together in the company to gain practical experience. At the end of the training, participants are able to carry out cleaner production assessment in industry and work with a team in a company to develop opportunities to increase competitiveness for the company. They are potential service providers or promoters for cleaner production in Viet Nam. In 2003 the centre focused its intensive training to support the Metal Fabricating and Finishing Industry. Participants were from metal fabricating and finishing companies, environmental authorities, consultancy organizations and research institutes from different parts of the country. By the end of the training program, participants will have gained both theoretical and practical experience and will be able to carry out cleaner production assessment with limited support from the centre. The training will be completed in February 2004. It is expected to have another 15-17 certified participants, counting to over 100 in-depth CP training participants by the centre through this program. Table 2. Overview training programme

Special skills Trainings These courses are organized in Viet Nam mainly for the CP service providers and the staff of the centre to improve and to enlarge their own skills in conducting CP assessments. Special skills training courses last three- to five-day and focus on topics like energy efficiency, financial engineering, environmental management system or total quality management in relation with cleaner production. A one-week training course on report writing skills has been organized for the staff of the centre in June 2004. This is considered as a good starting point to upgrade the skills of the staff members of the centre. An evaluation was made and a follow-up training programme on higher level is planned in 2005.

Special skills trainings enjoy a high demand from consultants and researchers

Tailor-made Training There was a great demand for tailor-made courses for projects executed by VCEP, UNEP and Danida. The demand of this year focused on the methodology of cleaner production assessment with links to material consumption, energy efficiency, and waste management. Participants were mainly from the industry. Five training courses were organized with 464 participant-days in 2004, of which two new clients are Da Nang University and US-EPA.

Training 2006
The lack of well-trained and experienced cleaner production specialists is one of the main barriers to the promotion of cleaner production in the Vietnamese industry. Therefore, one of the key activities of the centre is to build up, through training, a resource base of national experts on cleaner production. The following table presents an overview of the training courses held by the centre in 2006: Overview of training 2006

Integrated training in CP and related topics

The application of cleaner production doesnt follow a single approach anymore. Following the integration of cleaner production with energy efficiency and occupational health and safety in 2005, additional topics have been integrated in a number of specific trainings related to cleaner production. They are: Quality Control (QC), Environmental Management Accounting (EMA), and Clean Development Mechanism (CDM). While the QC training provided participants with knowledge and experience in product and production management, EMA is a tool for better investment decision. Techniques and analysis tools for the development of CDM proposals were provided during the CDM training. Participants in the above trainings were service providers and industry representatives. The follow-up with trainees showed that the service providers start applying the knowledge in their daily business with or without the support of the centre. It is clear that cleaner production is a win-win-win approach a better solution for enterprises, local authority and communities.

Training in Cleaner Production Methodology

These trainings aim at introducing the cleaner production methodology to the participants in details in order to enable them to apply it by themselves. This requires extensive training, and a modular system of four to seven three-day training sessions has proved to be the most effective. The training in CP methodology combines theoretical knowledge and practice. In 2006, in-depth CP methodology trainings were organized in Lao PDR and in Cambodia. The training programmes were divided into four modular training courses, following the flow of a cleaner production assessment.

Page 11 of 24

The centre also introduced a voucher system in order to motivate existing Vietnamese cleaner production trainees and consultants to provide and share practical experiences and strengthen the existing network.

Training in Technology
The installation and replacement of new and cleaner technology is encouraged by the Government, as clearly specified in the new Law on Technology Transfer, which was approved on 29 November 2006 and will enter into force on 1 July 2007. However, there is a still insufficient evaluation and comparison skill on how cleaner a chosen technology is. Two trainings, called Sustainable Assessment of Technology (SAT) and Metal Finishing Technology were organized in order to build up the capacity in this field. While SAT provides a methodology for evaluating the sustainability of various technologies, the latter training focused more on one specific sector with concrete examples. The training targeted service providers and related industry representatives. After the trainings, three metal finishing companies are participating in technology gap assessment programme (see more in Technology Gap Assessment).

Integration of cleaner production into curricula

Targeting the education of young generation in cleaner production through the university curricula, the centre has designed a special programme to equip participating lecturers with the materials and teaching methodology necessary to integrate this topic in their existing curricula. The introduction of cleaner production into university curricula was organized for universities in the south of Vietnam in 2006. So far, the following universities have introducing cleaner production as a 2-3 credit subjects: University of Technology and University of Natural Sciences (from Vietnam National University of Technology Ho Chi Minh city), Ho Chi Minh city University of Technology, Van Lang University, Can Tho University, Hue University, Nha Trang University, Hai Phong University, Thai Nguyen University, Da Nang University, Hanoi University of Technology, University of Civil Engineering, Hanoi University of Science. The National Economics University is also integrating cleaner production into their existing topic on environmental economics.
