[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] Dongmyung University (President Jeong Hong-seop) held an industry-academia cooperation agreement signing ceremony on November 12 with the Busan Youth Training Facilities Association and its 20 affiliated organizations.

This agreement was led by the Department of Social Welfare (Department Head Kim Nam-sook). Since 2020, this department has included a youth instructor training course in its curriculum, and from the 2021 academic year, it plans to operate a Youth Welfare major in the Graduate School of Welfare Industry.

The government plans to support the operation of 'Youth Centers' at the eup, myeon, and dong levels starting in 2021 by establishing installation standards to increase accessibility to play culture, which greatly affects the quality of life for youth, as outlined in this year's youth policy promotion direction.

Accordingly, the demand for youth-related facilities and youth instructors is expected to increase significantly, and through this agreement ceremony, Dongmyung University will focus on training professional personnel for facility operation and facility development.
