Strengthening Prevention of New Financial Scams and Illegal Gambling
The Financial Supervisory Service (FSS) announced that it plans to conduct financial education for high school seniors who have completed the College Scholastic Ability Test (CSAT) again at the end of this year.
According to the FSS on the 30th, applications for the "Post-CSAT Financial Education for High School Seniors" program will begin on November 2nd nationwide. The financial education will be conducted after the CSAT ends on November 14th.
The post-CSAT financial education for high school seniors is designed with useful content for students taking their first steps into society. It consists of a total of two hours covering ▲credit management ▲financial fraud prevention ▲financial management methods ▲financial tips. This year, the curriculum will be strengthened with additional materials on new types of financial fraud such as virtual asset investment scams and prevention of illegal gambling among youth.
Since 2019, the FSS has operated post-CSAT financial education primarily through financial companies participating in the "One Company One School Financial Education" program, using face-to-face, real-time online, and video education methods. Last year, financial education was conducted at a total of 527 high schools from after the CSAT until the end of the year.
Applications for post-CSAT financial education can be made on the FSS e-Financial Education Center website. Schools not yet paired under the One Company One School program can apply for post-CSAT financial education, while paired schools should apply for the One Company One School financial education. For inquiries about application or content, contact the FSS via email or phone.
