During the visiting AI education, KIT volunteers provided hands-on training to third-year students at Yeongheung Middle School using AI coding platforms and coding robots, and also held discussions on the proper use of AI and digital ethics. Additionally, they listened to the common concerns of third-year middle school students regarding high school entrance and career paths, sharing their own exam experiences and holding mentoring sessions.

KIT is a university student IT volunteer group operated by KT to bridge the digital divide between regions. In particular, it is a growth-driven volunteer activity that allows university students to take on the role of educators by developing and implementing AI coding curricula themselves while receiving coaching from KT employees and experts, as well as gaining mentoring experience, which attracts high interest from students.

Last year, KT conducted education sessions with KIT volunteers at Baengnyeong Middle School in Ongjin-gun, Incheon, and Seongdang Middle School in Iksan-si, Jeonbuk. This year, starting with Yeongheung Middle School, KT plans to continuously expand its educational activities.

Oh Tae-seong, Executive Director of KT ESG Management Promotion Office, stated, "We will continue to support efforts to bridge the digital divide across various social classes and nurture future digital talents."
