To strengthen its potential and advantages, Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) has been oriented towards becoming an economic center with high value-added, prioritizing the development of service as well as industries which are characterized by science and high technology, cleaning industry, energy saving, good labor efficiency and high values, etc. To meet the requirements, HCMC pays special attention to the development of high quality human resources and the enhancement of manpower quality, which are defined to be one of the breakthrough programs in the period of 2011 – 2015. The paper shows systematic findings about characters and criteria of highly qualified manpower, requirements and solutions to the development of high quality manpower and the enhancement of manpower quality in the process of industrialization and modernization in our country, especially for HCMC, a city with the biggest human resources in the country, well-qualified technological and scientific teams (accounting for up to 30% of the whole country), but it is facing a serious shortage of specialized human resources in most fields. In the short run, HCMC needs to concentrate on rapidly building up high-quality manpower to meet the needs of construction, development and integration into international economy, especially to focus on manpower for industries which are characterized by their high value-added and technology in order to ensure the need of highly qualified labor for key services and industries, and to improve the training quality to meet the requirements of domestic labor and high-quality labor export.
