The Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education is expanding the operation of the ‘Gyeonggi Shared School Credit Recognition Program’ to all areas within the province. This measure aims to guarantee diverse learning opportunities for students and strengthen the public responsibility of education.


The Gyeonggi Shared School Credit Recognition Program is operated by educational support offices within the province in collaboration with local community organizations. Courses are established and run after comprehensively reviewing factors such as student demand, satisfaction, whether the school curriculum offers the course, and the educational content system.


For courses linked with local community organizations, specialized spaces equipped with professional equipment are utilized, and local community experts teach the subjects, allowing students to study subjects that are difficult to learn at school in greater depth.

Last year, the educational support offices in Goyang, Guri-Namyangju, Gimpo, Bucheon, Seongnam, Ansan, Yongin, Icheon, and Uijeongbu completed the review of local community organizations (such as universities) and course establishment, as well as the student recruitment process. Starting from March, about 200 students will participate in 12 ‘Gyeonggi Shared School Credit Recognition’ programs.


To support this, on the 23rd of last month, the provincial office held a promotion council meeting for the Gyeonggi Shared School Credit Recognition Program targeting high school credit system and shared school officers at the educational support offices and provided guidance on support measures.



Kim In-suk, the regional education officer of the provincial office, emphasized, "By implementing the ‘Gyeonggi Shared School Credit Recognition Program’ linked with local community organizations across all areas in the province, we will eliminate regional disparities and guarantee diverse learning opportunities for students."
