These new resources are based on the 2022 revised curriculum and are designed to help students select courses and plan their studies in line with their career goals. In particular, the materials include information on university majors and departments by academic field, corresponding elective subjects, career exploration activities, recommended reading lists, as well as details on the 2028 university admissions process and recommended courses to take. This comprehensive approach aims to provide practical support for students' career planning.

The "Career and Academic Planning Guidebook for the High School Credit System" will be distributed to all first-year high school classes and third-year middle school classes in the province. The file will also be available for download from the "Career and Academic Planning" section of the Gangwon High School Credit System Support Center website.

The "Career and Academic Planning Website" will be integrated into the Gangwon High School Credit System Support Center website, offering a range of online information such as university departments by academic field, elective subjects by subject group, and career roadmap templates. Notably, through the "Career and Academic Planning Guide" section of the website, users can easily search for major departments and related subjects across eight academic fields and download a "Personal Career and Academic Plan" template to create their own academic plans.

Kim Seongrae, Director of Secondary Education, stated, "The core purpose of this guidebook is to help students independently explore their career paths and develop academic plans that match their interests and aptitudes." He added, "We hope that not only students but also parents and teachers will utilize these resources together to promote personalized career and academic planning for students."
