Seoul Welfare Foundation-Fast Campus, Agreement to Support Future Planning for Youth Account Participants

Agreement on the 19th to Support 10 Job Training Courses for 400 Tongjang Participants Over One Year

[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Cheol-young] The Seoul Welfare Foundation announced on the 21st that it has partnered with Fast Campus, a comprehensive practical training service company for office workers, to support job training for Hope Double Youth Account participants, who are low-income young adults starting their careers.

The foundation and Fast Campus signed a business agreement on the 19th regarding this matter. They plan to recruit and select applicants in August and provide a one-year course platform starting in September for 400 people, offering 10 courses across four tracks: data analysis, marketing, programming, and design/video.

Youth Account participants can apply for one of the four tracks through the Youth Account website. If there are many applicants, 400 will be selected by random drawing from the submitted applications.

Selected participants will be given an ID on the Fast Campus platform and can take up to 10 courses in their desired track over one year.

Fast Campus will provide and manage online educational content such as mobile app development, coding basics, data analysis, work automation, performance marketing, and UX. Outstanding participants will receive additional course vouchers for desired content. The Seoul Welfare Foundation, which oversees the Hope Double Youth Account, has been developing and linking various services since the account's establishment in 2015 to support young participants in achieving their goals related to housing, startups, education, and marriage funds.

Kim Sang-cheol, CEO of the Seoul Welfare Foundation, said, "Most participants in the Seoul Youth Account are low-income young adults uncertain about their future plans. We hope that through online job training, participants will have the opportunity to design their futures,"

Shin Hae-dong, CEO of Fast Campus, said, "We are pleased to support educational content that helps young adults build competitive careers, adding value to the Youth Account. We hope this agreement will be the seed of education that changes lives, which is Fast Campus's mission."
