As global demand for technology talent continues to surge, FPT is redefining what it means to build a workforce ready for the future. By combining Vietnam’s strong talent base with AI-driven learning and a culture of innovation, the company is shaping professionals who can thrive anywhere in the world. FPT’s approach goes beyond skills - it is about creating a workforce capable of powering the next wave of technological transformation.
Harnessing Vietnam’s Talent to Power a Global Workforce
Vietnam has rapidly emerged as a powerhouse for technology talent, producing more than 57,000 IT graduates annually from a network of 520 universities and colleges. This steady pipeline provides companies like FPT with a strong foundation to scale their operations globally while maintaining a high standard of technical excellence. Within this national context, FPT Education serves as a major talent engine. Its ecosystem reaches more than 152,000 learners across universities, polytechnics, international academies, and exchange centers operating in over 30 cities and provinces. This scale enables FPT to build a rich internal supply of digitally fluent, industry‑ready professionals at a pace few competitors can match.
FPT University, a key pillar of this ecosystem, adds further strength by producing more than 2,000 AI and data graduates each year. With specialized programs in semiconductors, automotive engineering, and other emerging fields, the university ensures that FPT’s workforce is continually replenished with talent ready to contribute to high‑growth sectors such as AI, mobility, cloud computing, and next‑generation manufacturing.
Advancing Workforce Capability Through Deep Domain Expertise
What distinguishes FPT is not just the scale of its workforce, but the depth of its cross‑domain expertise. Over decades of partnering with global enterprises, the company has cultivated thousands of experts across specialized technology fields. Among these experts are more than 5,000 automotive engineers, 3,000 Microsoft engineers, 1,500 SAP consultants, and so on, collectively forming a technical powerhouse that enables FPT to deliver world-class solutions for complex projects.
This concentration of technical mastery allows FPT to deliver high‑quality, industry‑tailored solutions while adapting quickly to emerging market needs. The organization’s dedication to excellence is further demonstrated by its remarkable portfolio of over 97,000 professional certifications, including more than 10,000 NVIDIA certificates, 2,000 cloud certifications, 1,200 SAP credentials, and more. By continuously expanding these capabilities and leveraging best practices learned directly from its customers, FPT transforms domain knowledge into a strategic advantage—ensuring that every project benefits from both world‑class technical competence and a deep understanding of industry‑specific challenges.
Fueling Growth Through AI-Enhanced Continuous Learning
FPT’s workforce development approach is a blend of curated education, applied innovation, and AI‑augmented development. Each year, employees complete nearly five million hours of training—an indication not only of scale, but of a mindset that embraces lifelong learning as essential to both personal advancement and organizational success.
This learning culture is further elevated by the company’s AI‑first strategy. AI is integrated across the entire employee lifecycle, from recruitment and onboarding to training, performance enablement, and long‑term career development. By weaving AI into daily operations, FPT creates a workplace that adapts to each individual’s needs, offering personalized development pathways, skills‑based recommendations, and automated support that aligns learning with real career goals. This data‑informed approach has helped the company achieve a 30% increase in annual productivity and has transformed learning into a responsive, intuitive experience.
Employees thrive in an environment enriched by more than 60,000 digital learning resources from global partners, including Harvard Business Impact, Coursera, LinkedIn Learning, and Mila. This foundation is strengthened by experiential programs, such as the AI Residency and AI Valley, which give employees hands‑on opportunities to explore advanced technologies, collaborate with international experts, and solve complex, real‑world challenges. Complementing these initiatives is FPT’s innovation‑driven culture, exemplified by the iKhiến platform, where employees contribute more than 5,000 ideas each year—many of which evolve into impactful solutions that enhance operations, improve delivery, and create meaningful value for clients.
A Diverse, Agile, and Globally Mobile Workforce
FPT’s ability to scale quickly has become one of its competitive strengths. Each year, more than 12,000 new employees join the company, drawn by a combination of opportunity, global exposure, and the promise of continuous development. This growth is supported by a strong global mobility engine, with more than 3,400 employees deployed onsite annually and an additional 2,000 ready at any moment to support international projects. This flexibility allows FPT to serve customers across Asia‑Pacific, the United States, Europe, and Latin America with agility and consistency.
Supporting this global reach is a highly international‑ready workforce. Today, 85% of FPT employees are fluent in at least one additional language, a capability that significantly enhances cross‑border collaboration and customer engagement. To strengthen this capability, the company provides training in several languages, including Japanese, English, Korean, French, German, and Chinese, ensuring teams can collaborate seamlessly across borders.
Yet the company’s long‑term success is rooted in more than technical ability—it is powered by a culture that places people at the centre. 87% of employees affirm that FPT fosters a happy work environment, an achievement supported by a wide range of celebration culture, recognition programs, and community‑building initiatives. MyFPT, the company’s internal app, delivers more than 156,000 recognitions each year, while activities like Happy Run, Parents’ Day, and Bring Your Child to Work Day strengthen bonds across the organization.
This deep sense of belonging contributes to a low attrition rate of just 9.7%, one of the best in the industry. FPT’s focus on inclusion further enriches its culture, with women accounting for 37% of employees and 36% of managers. The company’s commitment to creating an exceptional workplace has also earned consistent global recognition, including being named among the Best Places to Work in several countries where it operates.
The spirit of collaboration runs strongly through FPT’s operations. As the company manages more than 700 multi‑site projects and works with thousands of partners worldwide, its “one‑team” mindset ensures seamless cooperation across time zones and disciplines.
FPT’s workforce strategy demonstrates how a technology company can scale globally by investing deeply in its people. Rather than relying solely on market demand or external hiring trends, FPT has built an ecosystem where talent is continuously nurtured, challenged, and empowered - from education to ongoing development, international exposure, and a culture that genuinely supports employee growth. The result is a workforce that is not only technically strong but globally adaptable, motivated, and future‑ready. As the digital landscape evolves, FPT’s commitment to developing people at every stage ensures it will continue to shape and elevate the next generation of technology leaders.
