Economic Law Club Activity: “Teamwork Skills – Academic Exchange”.

At 13:30 on 16 April 2022, at Room D105, Campus 2, the Economic Law Club of Lac Hong University organized an extracurricular activity with the theme: “Teamwork Skills – Academic Exchange.”

For students, equipping themselves with teamwork skills is extremely important, not only during their time at university but especially after graduation when entering the workforce. Most professions today require candidates to possess this skill to ensure effective collaboration in professional tasks. Recognizing its importance, the Economic Law Club organized this extracurricular activity to help students enhance both their teamwork skills and academic knowledge.

The Economic Law Club was honored to welcome representatives from the Faculty of Business Administration - International Economics (FAIE), including: MB Ta Thi Thanh Huong – Vice Dean of FAIE; MB Ngo Thi Kim Anh – Advisor of the Economic Law Club; Vo Thai Sinh – Corporate Relations Officer; Mr. Le Thanh Nhan – Alumnus of the Economic Law major, Cohort 2014; Professional Secretary at Long Thanh Bailiff Office; Former Vice President of the Inter-Association of Students of FAIE for the 2016–2017 term; and Mr. Tran Trong Khang – Alumnus of the Economic Law major, Cohort 2018; Legal Consultant and Legal Secretary at Nguyen Viet Law Office. Members of the Economic Law Club, as well as students from Cohorts 20 and 21, also attended the program.

Opening the program, the MC, Bui Sy Tan Loc – a member of the Economic Law Club – introduced the content of the extracurricular activity to lecturers and students. MB Ta Thi Thanh Huong – Vice Dean of FAIE – offered remarks on the activity: “I highly appreciate the spirit and activities of the Economic Law Club. Although the Economic Law major has a small number of students, the Club continues to maintain and organize activities comprehensively.”

The program continued with valuable sharing on professional skills and academic knowledge from two alumni. Mr. Le Thanh Nhan – Alumnus of the Economic Law major, Cohort 2014; Professional Secretary at Long Thanh Bailiff Office; Former Vice President of the Inter-Association of Students of FAIE for the 2016–2017 term – shared with students: “When you study from textbooks, you only see simple knowledge, but when you work in different environments, you will encounter complex practical issues in real life.”

Mr. Tran Trong Khang – Alumnus of the Economic Law major, Cohort 2018; Legal Consultant and Legal Secretary at Nguyen Viet Law Office – also shared about his experiences as a former student and his current work. He added: “Do not place too much importance on grades. Grades are only a small part. When you start working, you will understand how your knowledge is applied.”

In addition to sharing practical experiences, the two speakers raised questions to increase interaction and engagement with students, addressing concerns such as:

“Is it necessary to have many connections to secure a job when studying Law?”

“What difficulties do Law graduates face after graduation?”

Students attentively focused on the stage, listening carefully to the engaging responses and insights provided by the two speakers.

The program concluded with a game segment featuring activities such as: “The Last Chair,” “Chinese Whispers,” and “Word Linking.” Each game was played in teams, combining entertainment and academic elements. Students enthusiastically participated, and the atmosphere became increasingly lively as they cheered loudly, “Come on, come on,” encouraging their teammates. Although each game varied in characteristics and difficulty levels, every team received prizes from the Organizing Committee. More importantly, the activities highlighted the value of teamwork and solidarity among students.

It is hoped that through the extracurricular activities organized by the Economic Law Club, along with encouragement and guidance from the Faculty’s leadership and MB Ngo Thi Kim Anh – Advisor of the Economic Law Club – the Club will continue to develop and achieve further goals in the 2022–2023 academic year.
