Fostering the teaching staff in accordance with Ho Chi Minh’s thought at the Artillery Officers College today

Abstract

In Ho Chi Minh's thought, education and training occupy a particularly important position in the revolutionary cause, in which the teaching staff constitutes the force that directly determines the quality of training and cadre development. He consistently emphasized the necessity of building and fostering a contingent of lecturers in a comprehensive manner, encompassing political qualities, professional ethics, professional competence, and pedagogical methods, regarding this as a prerequisite for fulfilling the mission of "cultivating people." Based on a thorough grasp of Ho Chi Minh's thought on education and cadre training, this article focuses on clarifying the fundamental contents of his thought concerning the development of the teaching staff, while analyzing the theoretical and practical significance of applying this thought under current conditions. The article also examines the practical implementation of lecturer development at the Artillery Officer School, identifies achieved results, existing issues, and the requirements for further improving the quality of lecturer development in accordance with Ho Chi Minh's thought, thereby contributing to the building of a teaching staff capable of meeting the requirements of military development in the new situation.
