[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Jong-hwa] Eugene Group is expanding digital education as telecommuting and remote work spread due to the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19).

On the 17th, Eugene Group announced that it will conduct 'Non-face-to-face Group Promotion Training' until the 23rd for employees promoted this year from Eugene Corporation, Dongyang, Hanil Fibers, Eugene Home Center, Korea Express, Eugene IT Service, and the Secretariat.

This training was introduced to seek new learning methods to replace existing offline education as changes in working styles such as telecommuting and non-face-to-face meetings accelerate due to the spread of COVID-19 and social distancing.

To compensate for the shortcomings of online education, which can reduce concentration, and to leverage the advantages of face-to-face education, instructors and learners were enabled to have interactive communication such as group discussions and presentations through real-time video channels.

The promotion training participants will take various curricula over two days to recognize new roles according to their ranks and strengthen the competencies necessary to perform their roles effectively.

Kim Gyu-sung, a manager at Eugene Corporation who participated in the training, said, "Although it was somewhat unfamiliar as it was my first experience with non-face-to-face education, I was able to focus safely on the training during a sensitive time due to COVID-19, so the training effect was high."

Lee Ji-won, deputy head of Eugene Group's HR team, said, "With the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic and the spread of telecommuting, employees' needs for non-face-to-face education are increasing," adding, "We plan to strive to secure future competencies and nurture talent through the development of optimized digital education programs in line with the times."
