On March 12th 2026, the Opening Ceremony of the Professional Master in ESG Management (PM-ESG3 HCM) was held in a warm and formal atmosphere, marking the beginning of a new learning journey for managers and business leaders who are committed to sustainable development.

The ceremony was attended by Dr. Phung Van Dong – Executive Director of AIT Vietnam; Dr. Roger Levermore – PM-ESG Program Co-Director; Dr. Faiz Shah – PM-ESG Program Co-director; along with distinguished partners, guests, current students, and AIT alumni from different cohorts.

A highlight of the event was the official welcome of 16 new students joining the PM-ESG3 HCM cohort. Coming from diverse industries and organizations, they share a common interest in integrating Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles into their business strategies and operations.

The ceremony therefore not only marked the start of a new academic cohort but also opened a meaningful journey of learning and exploration for the PM-ESG3 HCM students. Throughout the program, each lecture, discussion, and research project will provide opportunities for participants to reflect on real challenges within their organizations through a more systematic perspective, and to develop management solutions aligned with the goals of sustainable development.

AIT Vietnam wishes the PM-ESG3 HCM cohort an inspiring and rewarding learning journey, filled with valuable experiences, while together building a community of leaders committed to advancing ESG in Vietnam.
