SEOUL, South Korea, April 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — HD Construction Equipment, the intermediate holding company for HD Hyundai’s construction equipment business, will extend its commitment to developing global technical talent in the construction machinery sector by supporting the Vietnamese national team for WorldSkills.
HD Construction Equipment announced on Sunday (April 5) that it had signed a tripartite memorandum of understanding in Hanoi with the Directorate of Vocational Education and Training, or DVET, under the Vietnamese Ministry of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs, and the Central College of Transport No. 1 (CCT1), a local vocational training institution. The agreement aims to support Vietnam’s participation in the WorldSkills competition.
Under this agreement, HD Construction Equipment will support the entire process, from training to competition registration, for the Vietnamese national representative competing in the Heavy Vehicle Maintenance category at WorldSkills Shanghai 2026, scheduled for next September.
The company plans to provide comprehensive technical training to Nguyen Xuan Khanh, who was chosen as the national representative last year. In addition, the company will cover all expenses related to this training, including airfare, registration fees and accommodation, in order to create an optimal environment for the competitor to maximize their performance.
In July last year, HD Construction Equipment signed a memorandum of understanding with CCT1, which includes the Green and Smart Construction Equipment Talent Project. This initiative is part of the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA) Inclusive Business Program. The collaboration aims to support the development of smart equipment in Vietnam and create localized training programs.
The company has strengthened its commitment to Vietnam through a series of key initiatives, including hosting government officials and instructors for training in October, supporting national skills tests in November and providing scholarships.
An official from HD Construction Equipment said, “This collaboration is not just a one-time event; it is part of our commitment to sustainable and locally integrated business practices. We will continue to encourage young Vietnamese technical talents, helping them to compete on the global stage.
