Vietnam Aviation Academy signs partnership with KIN Group, accelerating the training of high-quality tourism professionals

Enhancing Training Quality Through the Implementation of the Corporate Semester Model

The signing ceremony took place against the backdrop of Vietnam’s rapidly growing tourism industry, which increasingly demands human resources who are not only strong in theoretical knowledge but also possess practical professional competencies and a modern service mindset. The event was attended by representatives of the leadership of Vietnam Aviation Academy, the Faculty of Tourism and Aviation Services, along with senior executives from Kin Living Management.

The event marked Vietnam Aviation Academy’s strong commitment to its strategy of developing high-quality tourism human resources through standardized curricula and the practical implementation of industry-integrated training models. The cooperation with Kin Group offers students valuable opportunities to engage in a professional and dynamic working environment within the boutique and lifestyle hotel chain model—an emerging global trend.

Kin Living Management: Affirming Market Position and Elevating Customer Experience

As a strategic partner in this collaboration, Kin Group affirms its position as one of the pioneering enterprises in the management and operation of premium hotel chains and serviced apartments located in prime areas of Ho Chi Minh City. From the refined and elegant Western gentleman-inspired design of Kin Hotel Dong Du to the harmonious blend of Japandi style and Wabi-Sabi philosophy at Kin Hotel Thai Van Lung, Kin Group continuously creates distinctive, intimate, and unique highlights for each of its properties, aiming to deliver high-quality, personalized guest experiences.

With a diverse ecosystem of accommodation brands that embody strong cultural identity and lifestyle values—such as the Kin Wander system and Kin Hotel system—Kin Group goes beyond providing lodging services to create “inspiring living spaces,” bringing a fresh breeze to Vietnam’s hospitality industry. Backed by a young and professional management team, rigorous service standards, and an open-minded governance philosophy, Kin Group is rapidly expanding its scale, becoming an ideal destination for young hospitality professionals eager to prove themselves in a professional environment.

Vision for Future Tourism Human Resources

Dr. Nguyen Thi Hai Hang, President of Vietnam Aviation Academy, emphasized:
“Partnering with a dynamic group that embraces modern management thinking like Kin Group enables our students not only to enhance their professional competencies but also to cultivate creativity and adaptability—key qualities of high-quality human resources in the new era.”

Meanwhile, Ms. Le Mai Hong Anh, Chief Human Resources Officer of Kin Group, shared:
“At Kin, we are always seeking young talents who dare to think, dare to act, and serve with sincerity. We are committed to accompanying VAA in nurturing young talents and creating favorable conditions for them to shine, in line with our people-centered development philosophy.”

Thus, the cooperation between Vietnam Aviation Academy and Kin Group reaffirms the long-term vision of both parties in building a high-quality workforce for the Hotel and Restaurant industry. Through an enterprise-linked training model, students will be equipped with professional knowledge, practical skills, and a modern service mindset—key competencies essential for adapting to the evolving landscape of the tourism and hospitality sectors.

This collaboration not only allows students to gain real-world industry exposure while still in school, but also helps establish a sustainable career development ecosystem. It is considered a strategic step toward narrowing the gap between theory and practice, while fostering a new generation of hospitality professionals capable of meeting both domestic and international labor market standards.

With this collaborative foundation, the partnership is expected to deliver tangible value for learners and make meaningful contributions to the future development of Vietnam’s tourism and hospitality industry.

The Memorandum of Understanding serves as a solid stepping stone for students in Hotel and Restaurant Management at Vietnam Aviation Academy, empowering them to confidently step onto the global stage and meet the most demanding requirements of the domestic and international labor markets.
