The Credit Union Central Association announced on the 25th that it successfully held the '2025 Credit Union University Student Internship Completion Ceremony' at the main lecture hall of the Credit Union Central Training Institute in Yuseong-gu, Daejeon.


This year's internship program ran for approximately eight weeks, from July 1 to August 22, with 28 university students participating at credit unions nationwide, including Seoul, Gyeonggi, Busan, Daegu/Gyeongbuk, Daejeon/Chungnam, Gwangju/Jeonnam, Chungbuk, Jeonbuk, and Gangwon. The program was open to all university students and those on leave of absence, regardless of major. One student was selected from each regional credit union and assigned to on-site training.


Participants gained practical experience in various areas, including ▲deposit work such as issuing bankbooks and check cards and collecting deposits, ▲loan operations, ▲member management and OnBank-related work, and ▲public relations and general affairs, thereby strengthening their hands-on capabilities. The internship program offered the benefit of waiving the document screening process once during joint recruitment by credit unions. In addition, students who excelled in their individual assignments received the same privilege and awards when applying for positions at the Credit Union Central Association.


Lee Chaeyeon, a representative graduate from Daejeon Daedeok Credit Union, shared, "Over the past eight weeks, I was able to discover my potential by learning about the diverse work of financial cooperatives. It was a valuable experience that will greatly help me as I prepare for my future career."


Woo Wookhyun, Managing Director of the Credit Union Central Association, stated, "The Credit Union Internship is a meaningful program where university students can directly experience the financial sector and grow. We will continue to be a cooperative financial institution that strongly supports the challenges and growth of young people."



Meanwhile, since 2022, the Credit Union has been operating the 'Credit Union University Student Internship' to provide young people with hands-on experience in financial cooperatives and support their career development. Now in its fourth year, the program offers university students selected from across the country the opportunity to experience all aspects of credit union work each year.
