This year's education program has been designed with a more diverse range of year-round courses than last year, reflecting the various learning needs of citizens.

In particular, to address gaps in educational access, the city has newly established 'Evening Classes for Office Workers' and 'Senior Classes' for adults, forming a customized education system for each generation.

The programs for youth are focused on career exploration and creativity enhancement. The main courses include hands-on projects such as ▲AI game development and ▲Internet of Things (IoT) practice using Bluetooth.

The adult programs are subdivided by level and purpose. Specific courses include ▲Digital Life Optimization (Beginner), ▲Creating Your First AI Assistant (Senior), ▲Work Automation Practice (Evening Class for Office Workers), and ▲Advanced App Development for Citizens.

Seniors are expected to strengthen their digital skills through AI-powered writing and video creation, while office workers will be able to acquire practical automation techniques to improve work efficiency.

Lee Minjung, Director of Education and Youth, stated, "This program is designed to help citizens experience digital technology as a convenient everyday tool rather than a vague challenge," adding, "We will continue to expand customized educational opportunities so that all Gwangmyeong citizens can fully enjoy the benefits of digital technology."

Applications will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis via the Gwangmyeong City Digital Innovation Education Center website starting March 23.
