Abstract
This study was focused on analysing and exploring the relationship between management practices in the training program and employer expectation in Viet-Hungary University. This research used a survey for collecting data from 500 respondents namely: employers, students and school members. This study also evaluated the impact of nine factors on management practices as Objectives and Tasks, Recruitments, Teaching and learning activities, Quality of teachers, Curricula, Library Facilities, Facilities for teaching activities, Financial management, and Service for trainees on employer’ expectation. The results showed considerable different evaluations of the three groups. The employers claimed that the university had to enhance the factors that affect graduates’ performance. While Students argued that they need more activities indoor and outdoor classroom, and required teachers to transfer knowledge and real experience in their lessons. However, university members claimed that almost all factors were suitable for students. Additionally, the result of regression pointed out that the four factors as recruitments, curricular, objectives and financial factors were not significant at 5% levels of significance that impeded the employers’ demand. It means that recruitments, curricular, objectives and financial factors did not significantly impede the employers’ expectation. Therefore, universities should continue to guarantee the remaining factors and focused on skills, knowledge, ability and attitude of students.
