[Asia Economy Reporter Donghyun Choi] LX Hausys announced on the 13th that it will collaborate with Paichai University to train experts who will contribute to the development of the domestic interior industry.

On the previous day, LX Hausys signed a business agreement for training interior experts at Paichai University located in Seo-gu, Daejeon. The agreement focuses on training experts through a field-customized practical interior education program, with students who complete the course being directly connected to employment. The aim is to revitalize the domestic interior industry and create jobs for young people.

From the first semester of this year, LX Hausys and Paichai University have been running a pilot program called the ‘LX Z:IN Interior CAD Expert’ course for graduating students seeking employment in the interior field at Paichai University’s Career Plus Center. Due to positive student responses, including employment as managers at LX Hausys Z:IN Square located in the Chungcheong region, an official course with a capacity of 15 students was established from the second semester.

This course is a practical program designed to acquire basic knowledge for employment in the interior industry. It includes practical training at the LX Z:IN interior showroom, Z:IN Square, and at agency offices. Students who complete the course are given interview opportunities without document screening. Unless there are special disqualifications, they are expected to be hired as managers at LX Z:IN interior agency offices in their preferred regions.

Interior managers perform tasks encompassing customer consultation, design, and site management. Their workplaces are the LX Z:IN interior Z:IN Square showrooms nationwide.

This year, LX Hausys has signed its third industry-academic cooperation agreement for training interior personnel with Paichai University, following Daejin University and Inje University. The courses at Daejin University and Inje University are currently underway, and upon completion in December, students will be offered opportunities to be hired as agency managers.

LX Hausys plans to actively address the difficulties faced by small and medium-sized interior agencies struggling to create jobs for young people and secure new personnel by expanding industry-academic cooperation with major universities across the country.

Choi Young-il, Head of the Interior Business Division at LX Hausys, said, “We are grateful to contribute not only to the revitalization of the domestic interior industry but also to the creation of youth jobs through the agreement with Paichai University.”

Kim Seon-jae, President of Paichai University, stated, “Through mutual cooperation with LX Hausys, a leading company in Korea’s interior field, this will be a good opportunity not only to train experts and contribute to industrial development but also to secure jobs for students.”
