[Asia Economy (Suwon) = Reporter Lee Young-gyu] The Gyeonggi-do Economic Science Promotion Agency will operate 130 training courses this year to enhance the capabilities of employees working at small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the province.

On the 15th, the agency announced that it will support training courses this year including the Regional Industry Customized Workforce Training Project, Core Job Training for Employees, Customized On-site Corporate Training, and the 'World Class CEO Academy' for CEOs of SMEs.

The Regional Industry Customized Workforce Training Project is a Ministry of Employment and Labor-approved program, consisting of courses reflecting the job demands of SME employees in fields such as mechanical design, smart factory, information and communication, and furniture.

Core Job Training for employees is offered in areas such as purchasing and materials, trade and overseas business, human resources and labor, and sales and marketing.

Customized On-site Corporate Training is provided exclusively for individual SMEs after educational consulting tailored to the company's needs, with companies only required to cover the actual cost of the training.

The World Class CEO Academy is designed to strengthen the global business capabilities of CEOs of export companies, covering topics from basic trade to practical overseas marketing, including regional studies and overseas training.

To prevent the recent spread of COVID-19, the agency has converted some training sessions to online education using platforms such as Zoom.

Yu Seung-kyung, head of the agency, emphasized, "We will continue to strive to discover new training courses that reflect corporate demands and market trends. Through educational support, we will do our best to strengthen the competitiveness of SMEs and link them with various support projects."
