Seongnam City to Implement 'Career and Academic Advisor System' at 36 High Schools Again This Year

[Asia Economy (Seongnam) = Reporter Lee Young-gyu] Seongnam City in Gyeonggi Province will implement the 'Career and College Admission Primary Care Physician System' for 36 high schools in the region by the end of this year.

The Career and College Admission Primary Care Physician System was introduced in 2016 as part of the Seongnam-type education support project, aiming to provide customized programs related to college admission and future career exploration for high school students in grades 1, 2, and 3 (25,851 students) and their parents.

Seongnam City is investing 292.5 million KRW in this project, supporting up to 7.75 million KRW per school according to each school's project plan for expenses such as special lectures by external college admission consulting instructors and operation costs for career or college admission programs.

Additionally, a graduate mentoring program is also operated.

This measure is intended to motivate juniors by having university students who graduated from the respective schools provide special lectures and consulting on career and college admission.

The city also operates a content planning and competency enhancement program for students of specialized high schools, overseen and planned by the Gyeonggi Content Agency.

This year, Seongbo Management High School was selected to participate in video production, 3D character modeling, and printing programs.

A city official explained, "The Career and College Admission Primary Care Physician System aims to strengthen the individual capabilities of students regarding college admission or employment, reduce parents' private education expenses, and support teachers to focus on curriculum guidance."
