Australia has 7 states, of which Victoria is quite developed. The Victorian High School Certificate (VCE) is the general education program of Victoria. VCE is implemented in Vietnam through cooperation between Vietnamese high schools and Australian schools/educational institutions, aiming to provide Vietnamese students with the opportunity to access high-quality education according to international standards. The VCE certificate is internationally recognized and accepted for admission to Australian universities as well as many leading universities in the world. VCE is equivalent to British A-Level certificates, International Baccalaureate (IB) diplomas, and American SAT and ACT exams. To achieve this certificate, students need to study and fully meet the requirements of the Victorian high school program for at least two years in grades 11 and 12.
Currently, many schools across the country have implemented the Australian general education program in big cities such as Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City.
