[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Gangdong-gu (Mayor Lee Jeong-hoon) is operating the ‘2021 College Admission Regular Screening Counseling Center’ so that examinees and parents can prepare for college admission regular screening and school enrollment without missing the timing, even amid the COVID-19 situation.


The counseling center will be open from the 17th to the 30th, weekdays from 10 AM to 8 PM, and Saturdays from 10 AM to 6 PM (hours vary by date).


Experienced former and current teachers proficient in admission information, along with local education experts and Edu Education Counselors, will conduct one-on-one counseling with examinees and parents, providing customized information on university and major selection related to regular screening, as well as overall career and academic guidance.


To prevent the spread of COVID-19, the counseling will be conducted using both face-to-face and non-face-to-face methods.


Face-to-face counseling will take place at the Self-Directed Learning Support Center (395 Gucheonmyeon-ro, Gangdong-gu) on the 3rd floor in a permanent counseling room. For the safety and health of participants, transparent partitions will be installed between counselors and examinees, masks must be worn, appropriate distancing maintained, and temperature checks conducted, strictly adhering to COVID-19 prevention guidelines.


Non-face-to-face counseling will be conducted using the Gangdong real-time remote learning platform. Examinees and counselors will connect to the platform and communicate in real time, utilizing various features such as subtitles and resource sharing to minimize the inconvenience of the non-face-to-face format.


Lee Jeong-hoon, Mayor of Gangdong-gu, said, “I believe there are many difficulties in preparing for college admission and pursuing studies due to COVID-19 and other factors. I hope this counseling center will provide a place where examinees and parents can prepare for college admission and enrollment more stably.”


Applications for the 2021 college admission regular screening counseling center can be made on a first-come, first-served basis through the Gangdong-gu Self-Directed Learning Support Center website.
