GH Completes 'Customized Training' to Strengthen Practical Capabilities in Public Architecture

The Gyeonggi Public Construction Support Center, operated by Gyeonggi Housing and Urban Development Corporation (GH), has successfully completed the "2026 On-site Customized Practical Training" program aimed at strengthening the practical capabilities of city and county public officials in public architecture throughout the province.

GH held the training sessions in a relay format, starting in Gunpo on March 11, then continuing in Suwon on March 17, and in Siheung on March 24.

Working-level officials in charge of facility construction, library policy, and architectural planning from each local government attended the training and had the opportunity to acquire field-oriented expertise.

The main topics covered included: ▲ the necessity of the preliminary review system ▲ how to utilize the Gyeonggi Public Construction Support Center ▲ a guide to completing preliminary review application forms.

In particular, the training was highly regarded for significantly enhancing practical project implementation capabilities by thoroughly addressing essential considerations for sustainable public architecture planning, such as site selection adequacy, scale planning, and energy efficiency.

The most notable feature of this training was that, beyond the delivery of theoretical content, it also provided tailored consulting on current projects being promoted by each local government.

During the Suwon session, on-site opinions were gathered on the need to establish a "Gyeonggi-style Architectural Hub" that reflects the unique characteristics of each municipality. In addition, immediate consulting was provided on the architectural planning request procedures related to the upcoming extension and renovation project for Seonggyeong Library, which received positive feedback from participants.

The public construction preliminary review system is operated in accordance with the "Gyeonggi-do Public Construction Service Support Ordinance." This procedure comprehensively reviews all aspects of a public construction project—including feasibility, site selection, and operation plans—at the pre-design stage, with the goal of enhancing both project efficiency and public value.

Kim Yongjin, President of GH, stated, "Through these on-site training sessions, we are working closely with municipal and county officials to further raise the quality of public architecture in Gyeonggi Province," adding, "We will continue to operate a systematic public architecture support system and provide ongoing support to strengthen the expertise of practitioners, thereby improving spatial welfare for residents."
