Abstract

The purpose of this study is to identify the educational needs for employment competency according to the career status of adult learners who participated in vocational education to have a job in the SW-related field. To this end, 345 adult learners who participated in SW-related vocational education at vocational training institution A were surveyed to analyze the current level and future needs of adult learners, consisting of 4 competency groups and 20 sub competencies. As a result of using the t-test and The Locus for Focus Model to check the educational needs, there was a significant difference between the current level and future needs for the entire competency group, but there was no significant difference in organizational and job commitment sub-competencies among sub-competencies. Also, if you look at the top areas with the highest educational needs, experienced learners were in the order of job document writing ability and job communication ability, and learners without experience were in the order of job search document writing ability, job decision-making ability, resource utilization ability, and self-understanding. Based on the needs of adult learners who participated in SW vocational education, systematic support measures such as customized curriculum and counseling will be available to produce SW talents with the job search skills needed by society.
