NCAA의 진로교육을 바탕으로 본 국내 대학 학생선수 진로교육의 방향성

초록

The purpose of the study is to analyze the career development program of NCAA and to compare them to the ones that Korea has. Although Korea Sport and Olympic Committee has its own career development program for retired athletes, they are not focusing on the college student-athletes. Recently Korea University Sport Federation started its own career development program since 2016. However, this program is quite new and it has low awareness level among college student-athletes. NCAA came up with the concept of transferable skills, which are the skills that can be practically used at work among the skills that can be developed through sport participation. The concept of transferable skills are actively utilized in various workshops for career development for college student-athletes. There is no hard evidence that NCAA’s career development is much better than that of Korea Sport and Olympic Committee. However, the way that college student-athletes are admitted to universities are quite different from their Korean counterparts. In addition, American college student-athletes are closely monitored for their academic achievement using academic progress rate and graduation success rate. However, Korean college student-athletes’ academic achievement has never been anybody’s interest. In conclusion, the way that Korean college student-athletes are admitted to universities and how their academic achievement is monitored are as important as their career development education.
