摘要

Abstract

This study aims to explore the effectiveness of vocational training programs in facilitating suitable employment opportunities for individuals with disabilities in Vietnam. To achieve this objective

a sample of 217 participants with disabilities from Can Tho city was categorized into four groups based on disability types: Physical disabilities

Hearing and speech impairments

Visual impairments

and Neurological and mental disabilities. The findings revealed significant positive impacts of various factors on the effectiveness of vocational training and subsequent employment opportunities for people with disabilities. Notably

training facilities emerged as the strongest positive influence

followed by Teacher quality

Training programs

and Financial support. Moreover

differences were observed in the impact of vocational training effectiveness on employment opportunities among different disability groups

with individuals with physical disabilities experiencing a stronger influence compared to other disability types. These results highlight the importance of enhancing vocational training programs and support mechanisms to improve employment outcomes for people with disabilities in Vietnam.
