Approximately 500 students, faculty, and officials from related organizations are expected to participate. The main programs include a major skills competition, a marine and fisheries job fair, and the "Badasori" arts festival. The major skills competition is divided into three categories: aquascaping, development of processed seafood products, and marine leisure sports.
The aquascaping competition is a contest where participants create underwater landscapes using aquatic plants and aquarium decorations. The processed seafood product development competition focuses on proposing practical and creative products using local marine resources. The marine leisure sports competition is a hands-on program where participants demonstrate their skills in marine sports and safety.
The job fair will feature 23 public institutions and related companies offering consultations. Practical programs such as image making and mock interviews will also be provided to help students prepare for employment. On the day before the main event, the "Badasori" arts festival will be held, with participation from fisheries high school students in Jeonnam. As part of a smoking prevention campaign, the "Non-Smoking Song Festival" will also take place.
The school plans to use this event to share the achievements of specialized education in the marine and fisheries sector and to provide students with opportunities to explore career paths and strengthen their employment and entrepreneurship capabilities. The school also aims to strengthen ties with industry to foster practical talent in the marine and fisheries field.
Principal Lee Hyunjin said, "We have prepared this event so that students can experience the trends of the marine and fisheries industry firsthand and design concrete career paths," adding, "We will continue to develop an educational model in which the local community and industry grow together."
