This project targets approximately 124,000 third-year high school students in the province and supports the strengthening of their competitiveness through student-led educational activities and obtaining certifications. As a result of close cooperation with the Gyeonggi Provincial Council, the budget has been allocated specifically for third-year high school students in the province to utilize.


This initiative is designed to improve various career planning and social advancement competencies for Gyeonggi students, who account for about 30% of all third-year high school students nationwide. It is meaningful in that the Office of Education supports and encourages students in preparing their initial career experiences in society from after the College Scholastic Ability Test (CSAT) until graduation.



Kim Sung-jin, Director of Career and Vocational Education at the Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education, stated, “We will strive to ensure that the budget for this project greatly aids the development of social advancement competencies for third-year high school students studying in Gyeonggi Province,” adding, “The detailed operation methods of the project will be carefully reviewed and implemented in collaboration with related departments within the Office of Education and relevant institutions in the province.”
