University version of cumulative records, a new ‘all-in-one record’
- PKNU also certifies credits with record card for performance in nonsubjects, including competitions, job-hunting, and start-up
Just as high school records are used for admission to the university, the university version of school records that can be used for job-finding is attracting public attention.
Pukyong National University (President Jang Young-Soo) announced that it will issue transcripts certifying not only credits and grades proving academic activities, but also non-extracurricular activities, including contest activities, employment and start-up activities, and volunteer activities.
Until now, university records have generally been printed as one-page documents that indicate the subjects students took, their grades, credits, grade point average, and percentages.
For this reason, to prove their competence, students or graduates had to prepare separate certificates including school records, details of participation in contests, details of employment and start-up lectures, and details of career and volunteering activities when applying to the company's document screening.
The record cards issued by Pukyong National University from this year includes subject scores such as major and liberal arts, as well as various extracurricular activities written in the name of the course, main activity contents, completion time, type, activity period divided into four fields including learning competency, career psychology, employment and start-up, and others.
Record cards are printed in 4-5 pages or more depending on the activity level of the students, and all activities listed are certified by the school.
For the new school records, Pukyong National University built a platform 'whalebe' that integrated support for over 180 extracurricular programs operated on campus and started operation this year.
Just like registering for majors or liberal arts courses, here, students apply for various contests, employment, start-up activities, and volunteer activities, and when complete all the activities, the details of the completion are automatically linked and marked on record cards.
Kim Young-Mok, director of the student affairs office, said, "I expect Pukyong National University's new record cards provide data to comprehensively evaluate students’ abilities by collecting not only course grades but also a lot of information about activities performed during campus life, and help students develop convergence and complex abilities while working in various fields." <Pukyong Today>
