The Korea Productivity Center (KPC, Chairman Noh Gyu-seong) announced on the 24th that it had signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Chosun University to promote educational development, mutual cooperation, and foster outstanding talent. The signing ceremony, held on the 21st at Chosun University, was attended by key officials from both institutions, including Min Young-don, President of Chosun University, and Noh Gyu-seong, Chairman of the Korea Productivity Center.

This agreement was established amid significant changes in the university education environment due to the sharp decline in the school-age population. Chosun University and the Korea Productivity Center will jointly consider and implement strategies to innovate university education, including improvements to academic structures and systems. In particular, with the unprecedented large-scale online education triggered by the recent COVID-19 pandemic, both institutions have agreed to work together to develop educational programs tailored for the post-COVID-19 era.

The two institutions plan to collaborate in various areas, including ▲ consulting and training projects for university development and specialization ▲ development and promotion of (non-)face-to-face educational programs ▲ employment support through job matching platforms ▲ establishment of university Institutional Research (IR) management systems ▲ projects related to universities' contributions to regional innovation ▲ support to enhance employment capabilities of international students ▲ and special lectures to improve the basic competencies of employees and university students at both institutions.
