Minister of State for Training and Skills Ciarán Cannon is this week leading a seven-day “Education in Ireland” mission to Vietnam and Malaysia, organised by Enterprise Ireland.

This mission forms part of the Government’s strategy to promote Ireland as a world-class destination for international education, and double the number of international students studying in Ireland by 2015.

This is the first education services mission to Vietnam by Irish higher education institutions.

Vietnam has a very young population with a strong desire for quality education.
