This training took place at the Geumchon Eoullim Center, with 40 participants including public officials responsible for permits and public architecture work, as well as local architects.

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a technology that integrates information about buildings into a three-dimensional model, managing the entire process from design and construction to completion electronically. Recently, it has gained attention as a key tool for the digital transformation of the architectural sector and the implementation of artificial intelligence (AI) in administrative processes.

The training was led by Professor Yang Jiho of the Department of Architectural Design at Seoyoung University, which is part of the joint organizing committee for the Paju City Architectural Culture Festival. The curriculum covered practical content that can be applied to administrative and on-site work, including: the basic concepts and practical applications of Building Information Modeling; methods for quantity calculation in architecture, structure, and MEP (mechanical, electrical, and plumbing) fields; process and progress management; and the use of Building Information Modeling in design changes and completion stages.

Participants commented that the training was highly beneficial, as it provided practical examples and hands-on experience with Building Information Modeling, which they had previously only encountered in theory. They also recognized the need to introduce Building Information Modeling-based systems in public architecture administration and design review processes.

Lim Sewoong, Head of the Permit Administration Division, stated, "This training has created an opportunity to enhance the efficiency and expertise of public architecture work." He added, "We will continue to expand training and system implementation to lead the way in information-based architectural administration."
