They also earned high evaluation for applying the accumulated advanced knowledge of the Gyeongbuk Office of Education, which achieved the standardization and digitalization of high school entrance screening by providing student records online for the first time nationwide, to administrative work, thereby improving work performance and efficiency.

The Gyeongbuk Office of Education will continue to be the catalyst for knowledge administration."
