Abstract
With the advent of the era of maritime competition over territorial sovereignty and marine resources worldwide, the role of the Coast Guard, a maritime executive agency, is becoming increasingly important. There is a growing demand from the public that wants to provide the highest level of administrative services internally and demands rational leadership in terms of fairness and justice. Coast Guard officers carry out important tasks to manage the organization, deal with pending issues, and design the future with a basic spirit of service and democracy to the people. Therefore, it is an important and urgent matter to be competitive in the organization and provide the best service to the people through the training of competent executive personnel.
 Despite its long history, the Korean Coast Guard maintains the previous system in its officer development system. It has been maintained until today without significant changes in the basic framework of Police Executive Candidate, which is the initial system. As a result, the overall organizational competitiveness has been weakened externally, and it has not been able to keep pace with the rapidly changing marine environment. Internally, it is deriving various problems such as lack of leadership, pure bloodism, and failure to promote its own director.
 In order for the Korean Coast Guard to become an institution that leads the pending maritime issues and provides high-quality services, it is necessary to diagnose the problems of the officer development system and seek alternatives. In consideration of the constraints of the scope of the study, this study will focus on the recruitment system and education and training of beginner officers among various categories related to officer development.
 First, we will look at the recruitment system for beginner officers and the current status of education and training for advanced foreign and domestic similar institutions. Next, we will identify the problems caused by the Korea Coast Guard officer development system. Finally, I would like to present a reasonable alternative to the development plan of Korea Coast Guard officers by focusing on the recruitment of beginner officers.
