The delivery took place in Hanoi on November 27 in coordination with the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union Central Committee.

Each scholarship recipient had a demonstrated financial need, graduated from high school with good or excellent marks and passed an exam given by the Prudence Foundation.

The students will attend a 2-year course to earn an international computer programming certificate awarded by the India Aptech Group.

In 2009, the Prudence Foundation granted 40 scholarships, worth VND2 billion in total, to students in Hanoi, Da Nang, Thua Thien-Hue and Nghe An.

The scholarship programme is part of a commitment between the Prudence Foundation and the HCM Communist Youth Union Central Committee to award 120 IT scholarships between 2008 and 2010.
