Gyeonggi-do, Nationwide First to Establish 'Smart Firefighting Education Management System'... Operating from August

Gyeonggi-do Fire Service Academy is set to become the first fire academy nationwide to establish a ‘Smart Fire Education Management System,’ with services starting this August.

This system supports the entire educational process of the fire academy?from educational design to operation and statistics?in a cloud environment, managing educational records from appointment to retirement. Furthermore, it is expected to contribute to strengthening the job competencies of fire officers by supporting self-development learning.

In particular, including a remote lecture platform, it enables various types of education regardless of the location of the learners’ residence or workplace, offering the advantage of effectively responding to user expansion and diversification of service demand.

Additionally, customized cyber education for civilians such as volunteer firefighters, private company employees, and general residents is also possible.

Previously, the Smart Fire Education Management System of Gyeonggi-do Fire Service Academy was finally selected last year in the ‘2024 Cloud Native Transition Project Contest’ hosted by the Ministry of the Interior and Safety.

The Ministry of the Interior and Safety is providing a project budget of 4 billion KRW for this management system, with the Korea Intelligent Information Society Agency overseeing the project. The system is built on the Samsung SDS cloud environment at the National Information Resources Service Daegu Center and will be operational from August this year.

Cloud native refers to a project that transitions public operational systems or data to a cloud-based platform to realize a digital platform government.

Jung Byung-do, head of Gyeonggi-do Fire Service Academy, stated, "Starting with the education management system, the ultimate goal is to establish a Korean fire education management system that supports fire officers’ competency development by integrating dispatch and work history." He added, "We will successfully promote this cloud native transition project and lead the advancement of fire education nationwide."
