Kim Si-yoon, a student from the Early Childhood Education Department of Gyeongju Girls' Information High School who attended the Sydney graduation ceremony, said, "Through global employment, I obtained Certificate III (Australian childcare worker qualification) in Australia and participated in on-site training, gaining confidence in language skills and overseas life. This motivation and confidence have made me want to build my career and settle at a childcare center in Sydney."


Lee Ye-jin, a 2016 graduate who settled in Sydney through global employment and attended the ceremony to encourage juniors, said, "By participating in the pre-departure program and Australia's global employment (12 weeks) course, I overcame fears about language and overseas life and gained confidence in overseas employment. I hope juniors also run toward their goals to demonstrate their abilities abroad and achieve their dreams."


In particular, when a global employment dispatched student spoke about the "Best moments in Australia, Working and living in Australia" at the graduation ceremony, representatives from companies responded, "We will support and encourage students who strive to adapt in a foreign country in various ways."


The Gyeongbuk Office of Education has dispatched 1,209 people to more than 10 countries since 2010 and boasts the largest number of dispatches and the highest overseas employment rate in national vocational high school global employment.



The achievements of this overseas advancement are the result of the Gyeongbuk Office of Education's continuous efforts, including discovering excellent overseas companies and signing business agreements for employment, operating visiting overseas local graduation ceremonies, and mentoring between seniors and juniors who have successfully achieved overseas employment.
