Trang 11 Reasons for choosing dissertation topic
Training programs plays an important part in the entire process
of training and is a decisive factor in the quality of training institutions
in general and universities in particular In recent years, theCommunist Party of Vietnam and the State always attach importance
to the quality of training, considering education and training as the topnational policy To raise the quality of education and training in thespirit of fundamental and comprehensive renovation of education andtraining to meet the requirements of industrialization andmodernization in the socialist-oriented market economy andinternational integration
With regard to the People’s Police, recognizing the importance
of the training program in deciding the quality of education andtraining, a master plan has been developed to improve the capacityand training quality of training institutions in the People's Policesector until 2020, in which emphasizing on the renewal of trades, themode of organizing training courses and contents of trainingprograms in the People’s Police schools The project has identifiedthe building and development of training disciplines in the people'spolice force, which must stem from the need to arrange and usehuman resources to meet the task of protecting the national securityand maintaining the safety in each period
However, the training curricula, curriculum management isstill limited, inadequacies, the education development strategy 2011-
2020 showed some inadequacies, weaknesses as "the content of thetraining curricula is still heavy in theory and teaching methods areoutdated, not suitable with different characteristics of different types
of educational institutions, regions and subjects of learners; not tostrongly transfer to training according to social demands; We havenot paid much attention to educating life skills, promoting creativityand practical skills of students" The actual situation that is set for theprocess of developing and implementing the training program must
be changed from the approach to the management process, which isthe practical and urgent issue in order to contribute to improving thequality training programs to meet current practical needs
Trang 2From a theoretical point of view, managing a training curriculumapproaching the learner capacity has a very important role to determinethe quality of training, especially in the current period However, whenreferring to training curriculum approaching the capacity, themanagement of training curriculum approaching the capacity has beenexplored in a variety of perspectives by a number of researchers, but stillexists But it is lack of comprehensive, systematic research in themanagement of training curriculum approaching the capacity at thetraining institutes of People's Police sector.
From the above reasons, the author selects the problem of
“Management of training curriculum approaching the capacity at the people’s police university of technology and logistics” as the topic of the dissertation.

Chapter 2 THEORETICAL BASIS OF THE MANAGEMENT OF TRAINING CURRICULUM APPROACHING CAPACITY 2.1 Theoretical issues about the training curriculum
2.1.1 Concept of training curriculum
The training curriculum is a comprehensive, systematic design ofthe training activities of a course for a specified period of time with thefollowing key elements: training objectives; content and duration ofmodules; methods and plans for implementing training content; and how
to check - evaluate training results All of these factors must be relevant
to the subject and level of training
2.1.2 The scientific basis of the training curriculum
* The basis of philosophy
* Structure of action capacity
Trang 9The overall structure of the action capacity is based on acombination of four component competencies, including:
Professional competence: The ability to perform professional
tasks as well as the ability to evaluate professional resultsindependently, methodically and accurately in terms of expertise.This includes the ability to think logically, analyze, synthesize,abstractize, and to recognize system and process relationships
Induvidual competency: The ability to identify and evaluate
development opportunities as well as the limits of individuals, developpersonal talents, develop and implement personal development plans,ethical values and motives that govern behavior and behaviors
Social competency: The ability to achieve goals in social situations
as well as the various tasks in close coordination with other members
Methodical competency: The ability for planned actions, goal
orientation in solving tasks and problems Methodological capacityincludes general methodological and professional methods
2.2.2 The concept of training program in capacity approach
Capacity-approaching curriculum is a training program thattargets, contents, methods and methods of assessment to formulateoutcomes based on the system of learners' action capabilities at theend of the course
2.2.3 Characteristics of the capacity curriculum in the capacity approach at the People's Police Universities
The training objectives of the People's Police university are totrain the People's Police officers with professional skills in trainingmajors; have a strong political stance, have good moral qualities,have high fighting spirit; ability to work independently andcreatively; have professional habits, dynamic and resourceful inpractical organization; to use the acquired knowledge to flexiblysolve business situations, effectively and practically; to advise theleaders in practical situations in order to protect national security andensure social order and safety
This shows that university training in the public security policehas set the requirement for capacity for action, which is that theuniversity's undergraduate program is not only equipped with theoreticalknowledge alone It is necessary to train soldiers who are capable ofresponding to work in the real world (professional capacity), having theability to work independently, creatively to work in practical situations(personal capacity) and to advise the various levels of leadership in
Trang 10practical situations in order to safeguard national security, ensure socialorder and safety (social competence)
2.2.4 The process of developing the curriculum based on the capacity approach of the People's Police University
Developing a traning curriculum based on a competencyapproach is a closed cycle, taking the following steps: demandanalysis, output design, curriculum design, curriculumimplementation, curriculum evaluation After each cycle, through theprogram evaluation results will overcome the shortcomings of theprogram before, from which the quality of the program isincreasingly raised During the implementation of the steps, there isparticipation and supervision of stakeholders such as managers,staffing units, lecturers and leaners etc
2.3 Theoretical issues of curriculum management based on capactity approach
2.3.1 The concept of curriculum management in a capacity approach
Curriculum management in a capacity approach is a oriented, purposal activity of the management to the steps in theprocess of developing the curriculum, the needs analysis process,development of output standards, curriculum design, curriculumimplementation and curriculum evaluation in order to achieve outputsunder a system of actionable capacities
