Hong Kong Institute of Information Technology (HKIIT) and Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Youth Society Jointly Promote VPET in the Greater Bay Area

Hong Kong Institute of Information Technology (HKIIT) and Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Youth Society (GBAYS) signed a Memorandum of Understanding on 23 January to jointly promote the Guangdong-Hong Kong co-operation in vocational and professional education and training (VPET) development.

Since its establishment in November 2023, HKIIT has been committed to promoting VPET in the field of information technology. Through this collaboration, GBAYS will support HKIIT in promoting the “Vocational Professionals Admission Scheme (VPAS)”, thereby fostering greater awareness among Mainland Chinese students, teachers, and parents regarding HKIIT’s strengths in VPET. HKIIT and GBAYS will launch various collaborative VPET projects, including student exchanges, guiding students on visits to entrepreneurial centres to experience the entrepreneurship environment in the Mainland, facilitating the movement of teaching staff and students, and exploring more collaboration and innovation opportunities for students in Hong Kong and the Greater Bay Area.
