Microbiological Verification Support Center Signs Business Agreement with Neungju High School

The Jeonnam Hwasun Microbiology Support Center (hereinafter referred to as the Center) announced on the 14th that it signed a business agreement (MOU) with the Woojung Academy Neungju High School located in Hwasun for the training of bio experts in the Jeonnam region.

The main content of this agreement is that the two institutions will share the latest trends in education and career exploration and establish a cooperative network for training professional personnel. Through this, we plan to provide students with effective career exploration opportunities and establish a sustainable human resource training cooperation system.

Neungju High School plans to provide students with a variety of information on career paths and entrance exams in the bio and pharmaceutical fields through cooperation with the center, and to contribute to creating opportunities for practical education and experience. Through this, students will be able to experience field training in advance, which is difficult to experience even in college, during their high school course, and it is in line with the recent emphasis on fostering professional technicians and creative convergence talents in specialized high schools and Meister high schools.

Neungju High School is particularly established as a 'regional prestigious' private high school, and has maintained a high reputation by recording the highest number of admissions to Seoul National University in the Jeonnam region every year. Through this agreement, Neungju High School is expected to establish itself as a school that goes beyond simply excellent entrance exam results, fosters talent tailored to the field, and produces key talent in the bio field, a future growth industry.

Meanwhile, the center plans to open an education center in June 2025 and begin full-scale human resource development through the 'Vaccine Industry Professional Human Resources Development Project' supported by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy and Hwasun-gun, Jeollanam-do. The center aims to produce more than 900 graduates by 2026, and plans to expand education operations upon completion to achieve this goal.

The training center, scheduled for completion in June 2025, will be a state-of-the-art facility capable of conducting GMP training on the largest scale in the Gwangju-Jeonnam area. It will be equipped with pharmaceutical production facilities such as a 50L incubator, high-pressure sterilizer, and continuous centrifuge for training in everything from microbial culture to purification, as well as equipment for quality control training such as physical and chemical analysis using HPLC, LC-MS, microbial testing, and environmental monitoring. This is expected to further expand the scope of cooperation with educational institutions.
