Pyongyang, October 19 (KCNA) -- In the DPRK, big efforts have been paid to tele-education which is playing a big role in making all the people well versed in science and technology and preparing all the working people to be intelligent workers.

According to Kim Jong Hak, department director of the Education Commission, thousands of industrial establishments joined in the tele-education system run by scores of universities like Kim Il Sung University, Kim Chaek University of Technology, Pyongyang University of Architecture, Phyongsong University of Coal Mining and Kye Ung Sang Sariwon University of Agriculture throughout the country in the last ten years. And the number of academic subjects in the system increased to several hundreds.

Kim Il Sung University, which is playing a key role in the tele-education on social science, has worked out the education programme on a higher level and put the education contents and methods on a practical, comprehensive and modern basis.

Kim Chaek University of Technology which contributed to putting the country's tele-education on an IT basis by developing Korean-style tele-intellectual education management system, Pyongyang University of Mechanical Engineering, Pyongyang University of Medicine, and Wonsan University of Agriculture are now normalizing the operation of tele-academic unification system in liaison with relevant universities.
