[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hong Jeonghwan] Ulsan Metropolitan Office of Education will conduct the ‘High School Open School Vocational Education’ online for 44 first- and second-year students of vocational high schools on the 24th.

‘High School Open School Vocational Education’ is a program that helps high school graduates find employment in public institutions. The Office of Education signed agreements with nine public institutions in Ulsan Innovation City in September last year and with Ulsan Port Authority in August this year to launch the Open School.

This Open School will be conducted online and will provide programs on understanding institutional culture and interview preparation. It aims to strengthen students’ employment capabilities and motivate them to seek employment in public institutions.

The cooperation between the Office of Education and public institutions, conducted amid difficulties in field training and employment due to the COVID-19 pandemic, is receiving positive evaluations in school settings as well. In 2020, the program was operated twice, in August and December, and in 2021, it plans to expand the participating institutions and continue the operation.

Heo Seonggwan, Director of Future Education, said, “Considering the reality that face-to-face education is difficult due to COVID-19, the program is conducted online, but I hope that the well-structured program operation and active participation of students will greatly help strengthen the employment capabilities of vocational high school students.”
