The training program is the focus of all pedagogical activities in particular and educational activities in general, so the development of training programs and activities related to the development of training programs have become an important issue and are of interest to many educational scientists. The literature review method is used in this study to collect and extract the data from the national database system to show an overview of training program research and training program development that have been conducted in Vietnam. The findings indicate that the training programs have been changed from content training to training to form learners' competence. Furthermore, the programs are developed using a variety of modern perspectives and theories, such as output standards, educational innovation needs, liberal educational philosophy, competency-based performance, and so on. However, many more studies should be carried out to not only point out the limitations of the system of studies on training programs but also provide scientific evidence for new directions of training program development that should be developed and applied by the education system.
