2020 GDLN Blended Learning Program

We would like to announce the launch of the KDI School of Public Policy and Management’s 2020 GDLN Blended Learning Program. The program will cover lessons on various dimensions of Korea's Public Sector Innovation for Sustainable Development via seven GDLN videoconference seminars.

Participants will be encouraged to take part in debates and share professional experiences and case studies. Courses will be taught by KDI School faculty, experts in the field, practitioners, and guest speakers.

We invite our KDI School Family to join us for a timely discussion on how Korea has been applying and adjusting to the rapid changes in technology (artificial intelligence, IoT, robotics, etc.) in delivering public services, and the lessons we are learning and the challenges we are deliberating along the way. The program consists of seven GDLN videoconference seminars that are organized over a four-month period.
