CUHK School of Continuing and Professional Studies (SCS) has been a pioneer in Korean language education in Hong Kong. There are several notable achievements of SCS in furthering the cause of Korean language education in Hong Kong among others.
SCS started offering Korean courses in the fall of 2001 to provide opportunities for the Hong Kong public to learn Korean. SCS introduced in 2003 the most prestigious Test of Proficiency in Korean (TOPIK) to Hong Kong. It has organized annually the Korean Speech Contest since 2005. SCS played an active role in working with Korean Consul General and EMB officials in including Korean language as one of CEF reimbursable language sectors.
Further, SCS has ongoing collaborations with many Korean universities. Through partnerships, SCS has helped many students gain intensive but valuable learning experiences through immersion programmes in Korea.
SCS colleagues offering Korean programmes are proud of the achievements and feel it is their mission to further improve the programmes through "Korean Language Education & Culture Centre" (KLECC) to ensure SCS remains a preferred choice for those who aspire to learn Korean in Hong Kong.
