In the context that Vietnam is actively approaching Industry 4.0, teacher training institutions, including universities of education, are taking various approaches and seeking methods to develop pedagogical competencies for students in order to meet the requirements of this revolution. However, thoroughly understanding the nature and the impacts of Industry 4.0, thereby applying its advantages in development of teaching competencies for pedagogical students, is still a question that needs answers from domestic and foreign educators. The article compiled 18 references related to this issue, then analyzed and synthesized, discussed the opinions and viewpoints of each author, and recommended a number of measures to develop teaching competencies for students in universities of education to meet the requirements of Industry 4.0: identifying goals of competency training for students; developing training programs towards the formation of teaching competencies to meet the requirements of Industry 4.0; innovating the integrated training aimed at the required professional competencies of teachers 4.0.
