In the context of rapid digital transformation, enterprises have a large and urgent demand for recruiting specialists with in-depth skills in system administration, computer networks, and information security. These are key positions that play a crucial role in ensuring a robust technological infrastructure for enterprise operations and development in the digital era. In practice, candidates who are equipped with practical knowledge from leading technology companies or who possess reputable professional certifications always have a distinct advantage in the recruitment process—not only opening up many attractive job opportunities but also paving the way toward positions with high income levels. Therefore, equipping students with practical knowledge, advanced professional skills, and sound career-oriented thinking is extremely important, enabling them to be ready to adapt and meet job requirements immediately after graduation.

These remarks reflect Dr. Nguyen Hoang Chien’s deep concern for the training and development of human resources in the field of network administration and systems. He emphasized the need for network engineers who are not only solid in professional knowledge but also flexible, creative, and capable of rapidly adapting to technological changes. Accordingly, the training and enhancement of skills for students majoring in network administration and systems have become increasingly urgent. At the same time, he underscored the importance of cooperation between universities and enterprises in improving educational quality and meeting the practical needs of society.

After a period of discussion on the presented papers and the sharing of experiences by the speakers, lecturers and students gained a clearer understanding of the field of network administration and systems, addressed existing questions, and clarified development orientations for the coming years of the industry. From this, students will be able to chart their own learning and research pathways in preparation for their future professional careers.

The organizing committee hopes that the information and insights shared during today’s workshop will bring practical value to lecturers and students. At the same time, it is expected to open up many opportunities for future cooperation among the Faculty, the University, and enterprises.
