Why Did Daegu Superintendent of Education Kang Eun-hee Visit Local Business Owners?

Meeting Between Four Companies and CEOs
"Request to Promote Employment for High School Graduates"

The Daegu Metropolitan Office of Education (Superintendent Kang Eun-hee) held the "3rd CEO Meeting of the Local Companies Network" at 10:30 AM on the 4th to promote employment for vocational high school students through collaboration with local companies.

In the two previous meetings held in April and July, representatives from nine outstanding local companies and principals of vocational high schools attended to share opinions on revitalizing high school graduate recruitment and to explore directions for the development of vocational education.

Unlike the previous two meetings, the 3rd meeting involved Superintendent Kang Eun-hee, principals of Joil High School and Sangseo High School, and officials from the Office of Education visiting the "Sambo Motors Secheon Plant" in person to meet with representatives and executives from four companies: Sambo Motors, Shinseong S&T, Wonhwa Precision, and Kyungdong, as well as the Executive Director of the Daegu-Gyeongbuk Machinery Cooperative Association.

Superintendent Kang and the education officials toured the Secheon Plant, which is primarily used for on-site experiential learning by vocational high school students, and discussed with the participating company representatives customized industry-academia cooperation plans, growth strategies for employees who graduated from vocational high schools, and ways to promote regional development through the activation of employment for high school graduates.

Superintendent Kang Eun-hee stated, "When vocational high school students are educated as talents suited to the characteristics of our region and settle in local companies to grow as skilled technicians, regional development, companies, and individuals can all grow together. We will continue to cooperate to help outstanding local companies and vocational high school graduates grow into highly skilled technical personnel."

Meanwhile, the Daegu Metropolitan Office of Education is building networks with local governments, job-related organizations, companies, and universities to promote projects such as the Vocational Education Innovation Zone support project, industry-academia integrated apprenticeship schools, customized manpower training projects for small and medium-sized enterprises, and agreement-based specialized high school development projects, striving to create conditions for outstanding local talents to grow within the region.
