Busan Office of Education Launches 'Data Competency Assessment' for All Staff... Introduces AI Section for the First Time

The Busan Metropolitan Office of Education (Superintendent Kim Seokjun) will conduct a 'Data Analysis and Utilization Competency Assessment' for all headquarters staff by June 23.

This measure aims to assess the practical competencies necessary for establishing data-driven policies across all areas of administration.

The assessment was first introduced last year with approximately 200 participants, and this year it has been expanded to include all employees. In particular, an 'AI Competency Assessment' section has been newly added to address the changes brought by an AI-centered society.

The assessment will be conducted in the form of surveys and quizzes using an online tool provided by the Ministry of the Interior and Safety. The results will be used to develop future policies to strengthen data-driven administrative capabilities.

Previously, based on the results of the first assessment, the Office established a systematic competency enhancement plan by dividing data analysis skills into organizational and individual categories. Since then, it has achieved various outcomes, such as producing promotional leaflets for the Integrated Education Administration Data Management System, publishing a data newsletter, holding a data analysis project competition, and offering analysis and utilization training for working-level staff.

Superintendent Kim Seokjun stated, "Data is the key to the reliability and quality of administration," and added, "We will systematically assess the competencies of all staff to establish a data-driven administrative culture."
