SBB (Shine Beyond Borders) is an institute that trains young Vietnamese and takes them out into the world through real professional capability, not just a study-abroad ticket.
Most centers stop at paperwork and visas. SBB builds real capability, so you are trusted and valued in an international setting, not just “allowed to go”.
We train job skills, an international work mindset, and applied English, and we connect you directly with businesses in Australia. Before each step abroad, you go through a proper capability assessment so you know exactly what to prepare.
SBB is a fit for young people who want to build an international career on real capability, whether you just finished high school, are a student, or already work and want to change direction.
You don’t need a high degree or strong English already. What matters most is a drive to grow and being serious about your path. Everything starts with a capability assessment to pinpoint your starting point and the right plan for you.
You can absolutely do this. The SBB path starts from the basics and builds up at each person’s pace: from applied English and job skills to an international work style.
You don’t need to be perfect at the start; you need the right plan and someone who stays close. That is exactly what SBB does.
We are strong in fields with high, lasting international demand: Culinary, Hospitality, Business, and Marketing. Each field has its own training path, tied to our network of partner businesses.
Our main destination right now is Australia, where you practice and work for real in the field you chose. The SBB alumni community is already present in many countries, a support system for you wherever you go.
The path follows clear steps, not "sign up and wait":
The timeline depends on the field and each person’s starting point. In your consultation, you’ll get a specific plan with clear milestones made for you.
Cost depends on the field, the plan, and each person’s starting point, so instead of a vague number, SBB breaks down every item transparently right in the consultation so your family understands it before deciding.
The program is designed in stages, with flexible financial support options, so families don’t have to shoulder the whole cost upfront. The goal is that the investment always comes with real results at each stage.
Everything starts with a free consultation and a capability assessment, with no strings attached.
You’ll see the plan, the cost, and the expected results clearly before you decide. SBB designs the path in stages so your family always stays in control.
Yes. SBB is with you through the whole process of preparing your paperwork and visa, and we prioritize career paths with long-term residency potential, not just "getting to go".
Residency prospects depend on the field, your capability, and the host country’s policy at each point in time, so SBB advises honestly on the most realistic path for your case, rather than promising anything uncertain.
Yes. One of the biggest values of the SBB path is that you learn and work for real in the very field you’re pursuing, through our network of partner businesses.
Income depends on the field, the region, and each person’s capability, but the goal is clear: help you reach financial independence sooner and build valuable experience, not just work odd jobs to get by.
We measure by real results: jobs in the right field, income, and a residency path, not promises.
When the capability foundation is solid, results become predictable.
SBB understands this is a big decision for the whole family, so the path is designed in stages to keep you in control, rather than betting everything on one shot.
Situations like unfavorable paperwork or a change of plans all have a clear course of action and policy, and we talk it through transparently from the start so you feel secure about your rights before you commit.
Yes. SBB is with you the whole way: from preparing in Vietnam, through settling in during your first months abroad, until you stand firm in your work and residency path.
The SBB alumni community across many countries is the support that means you never have to go it alone.
