Cho Young-tak, CEO of Hunet, is attending the '2021 Human Resource Development (HRD) Leaders Forum' on the 23rd, discussing non-face-to-face education and the digital transformation of HRD in the post-COVID-19 era.

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Daeseop] Hunet announced on the 23rd that it held the '2021 Human Resource Development (HRD) Leaders Forum' as an online live event.

This HRD Leaders Forum was attended by about 3,000 corporate training officials online due to the spread of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19). The program included the announcement of Hunet's next-generation education solutions, introduction of the application methods of digital learning in corporate training, and a discussion on 'Utilization of Post-COVID Digital Education.'

Jerome Glenn, an American futurist and author of the 'The Millennium Project: State of the Future' (known as the 'World Future Report'), stated in his keynote speech, "Immersive education through augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and other digital new technologies has emerged, and collective intelligence of individuals and companies will become increasingly important amid the vast amount of information."

He continued, "These changes are accelerating further due to COVID-19. Especially in companies, much effort must be made to organically connect work environments and learning so that the collective intelligence of members can be demonstrated."

Through the forum, Hunet introduced 'Labs,' an artificial intelligence (AI) learning management system for companies and organizations. Labs integrates processes from education planning to learning experience and performance analysis into a single platform. Based on big data, it provides learners with customized content according to their capabilities and interests. It also helps learning managers establish educational analysis and strategies necessary for companies and individuals.

Hunet also announced the core keywords for corporate training in 2021. Hong Jeongmin, head of the Hunet Edutech Research Institute, presented the core keywords for corporate training as ▲Untact Learning (normalization of non-face-to-face learning) ▲Learning in the Workflow (integration of learning and the workplace) ▲Learning Experience Design (diverse expansion of learning experiences) ▲Self-directed Learning Environment (support for self-directed learning in untact environments using digital technology).

Cho Youngtak, CEO of Hunet, said, "Non-face-to-face education and digital transformation of HRD after COVID-19 have become an irreversible reality and are accelerating more and more," adding, "As a leading education company suited for the digital era, we will work responsibly for the growth of individuals and companies."
