Air Busan and Dong-A University officials are signing a business agreement.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hwang Du-yeol] Air Busan has signed an industry-academia cooperation agreement with Dong-A University to cultivate aviation professionals.

On the 29th, Air Busan held an industry-academia cooperation agreement ceremony at the main conference room of the Seunghak Campus main building of Dong-A University, located in Saha-gu, Busan.

The ceremony was attended by CEO Ahn Byung-seok, Dong-A University President Lee Hae-woo, and other related personnel.

According to the agreement, Air Busan will collaborate with Dong-A University to develop job programs and conduct research activities aimed at cultivating aviation professionals.

Additionally, based on the accumulated know-how in developing educational programs, Air Busan plans to support practical training using its own training facilities to provide hands-on experience.

On the 30th, at Dong-A University's Bumin Campus, the Air Busan cabin crew team leader will directly conduct a lecture providing useful employment information such as ▲the role and duties of cabin crew ▲preparation process for cabin crew ▲interview know-how.

An Air Busan official stated, "We believe that cultivating many excellent aviation professionals in Busan, which is advancing as a gateway city, can prevent the outflow of local talent and weakening of regional competitiveness," adding, "As a regional airline, we will devote significant efforts to nurturing prospective aviation personnel with a strong sense of mission."

Air Busan has established industry-academia cooperation with nine universities in the Busan area, actively contributing to the development of local students' capabilities and strengthening their employment competitiveness.

Since last year, together with Busan City and the Busan Economic Promotion Agency, Air Busan has been conducting the on-site training education program "Dream Campus," educating over 300 local university students over two years and dedicating efforts to nurturing prospective aviation professionals.
