The education program included ▲ Generative AI digital transformation training (March to June) ▲ Report writing and speech enhancement training (August, November) ▲ Organizational communication humanities and education on individual role recognition within the organization (August, November) ▲ Local government promotion strategies and successful case studies training (November). Depending on the number of participants per session, the programs were held at the Goyang Talent Education Center, the City Arts Center, and the main conference rooms of each district office.

The city plans to expand the "Self-Development Literacy Education" from 12 to 16 sessions annually in 2025 to further enhance the capabilities of public officials through high-quality job and literacy education.
