Abstract:

Competitive pressure due to the increase of higher education institutions in both central cities and in localities, causing many difficulties in recruitment for regional universities in Vietnam. Therefore, making employers satisfy with graduates plays more and more important for the development of regional universities. Empirical research with 400 employers employing recent graduates from Thainguyen University, one of the biggest regional universities in Vietnam, was conducted to evaluate employers' satisfaction with graduates. This is an important basis for the university to evaluate the quality with market orientation and seek solutions to improve training quality. The research results show that all of the graduate’ skills did not meet the requirements of employers. Especially, adaptive skills and Technical skills are required higher while they assess low satisfaction than other skills.
