[Asia Economy Reporter Jong-il Park] We are truly in the era of the 4th Industrial Revolution. Technologies such as artificial intelligence, big data, and the Internet of Things are becoming embedded in every aspect of daily life.


In particular, big data enables the collection of vast amounts of data to analyze trends, people's behavior patterns and tendencies, market responses, and economic conditions, allowing for future predictions. As a result, governments and companies are actively adopting big data, and big data specialists are emerging as promising future professions.


Accordingly, Yangcheon-gu (Mayor Kim Soo-young) is establishing and operating an introductory big data education course to cultivate specialized personnel who can respond to the 4th Industrial Revolution and contribute to creating new youth jobs.


Youth aged 19 to 39 residing in Yangcheon-gu who are interested in big data can apply. The course will be held every Saturday for 15 weeks from August 29 to December 12.


The number of participants is limited to 25, and the tuition fee is free.


The curriculum combines theory and practice, including a basic introductory course that is easy for non-majors to understand, big data analysis and utilization, data collection and processing. Based on the learning content, participants will also carry out and present mini-projects. Outstanding project teams who complete the course will be awarded certificates directly by Yangcheon-gu.


Youth who wish to participate can apply online through the Korea Management Certification Institute website.



Kim Soo-young, Mayor of Yangcheon-gu, stated, “The world is rapidly changing, and with the increase in speed and diversity, uncertainty about the future is growing. I hope that the youth of Yangcheon-gu will respond quickly to this uncertainty and grow into next-generation leaders who reach out globally.” He added, “I hope this education will help young people who wish to pursue careers in the big data field to decide their career paths.”
