The Ministry of Education and Training is organizing the project and will choose suitable schools to launch the training program.
To operate the plant, Vietnam will need more than 1,000 staff and around 70-110 experts, including project managers, maintenance staff and radioactivity safety controllers, said Vietnam Atomic Energy Commission head Vuong Huu Tan.
Under a cooperation memorandum signed last week, Japan will help Vietnam in the nuclear project by training workers for the plant and sharing its experience in operating nuclear reactors with Vietnam.
The first reactor, with commercial operation slated for 2020, is expected to generate 2,000 megawatts of electricity.
The conference on nuclear power was held as part of a four-day nuclear power exhibition in Hanoi last week.
