Estate Lifelong Learning Center

Estate is a comprehensive consulting education company that provides job training, legal training, and security consulting. 

CEO Song Sae-hwan worked for more than 10 years at a job training institute that trained security guards and general office workers. He thought that in order to provide more professional education and quality contents, we should keep pace with emerging online education. As a result, he founded Estate in 2017. 

 

Learning anytime, anywhere

Learning on web or app

Estate provides a learning environment where anyone can easily learn anytime, anywhere, on any smart device. Since the company is a web-based learning, there is no need to install a separate app, and it provides a convenient UI/UX so that you can easily take the desired learning with a single click. Anyone from the generation familiar with online learning to the elderly learners who are not familiar with it can conveniently use e-learning through this LMS Learning System. In addition to online education, Estate is also conducting offline education from 2021. 

CEO Song said, “About 20 instructors belong to offline educational institutions. In addition, we are inviting professors from the Department of Police Administration or Security Department to create courses for new specialized fields.”

Online courses for digital convergence training, and guard and security

Estate Guard & Security Training Center

Estate runs various courses including digital convergence training, guard and security. Since the guard business was created to perform on behalf of the police, it requires permission from the National Police Agency. 

Organizations operating the security business are obliged to provide monthly job training for security guards under the management and supervision of the National Police Agency, and the management is carried out through security instructors who hold national licenses. The Estate Guard & Security Training Center is also a private security training institution designated by the National Police Agency, and operates a new general guard training course that must be taken by those who wish to work in the security industries. The center conducts mandatory training courses in accordance with the Security Industry Act, operates job training, and trains security workers every year. 

The strength of the center is that it develops a new curriculum every year and provides educational services through online. The center provides 100% online education by recruiting new education experts approved by the National Police Agency, and operates security services, consulting, and employment centers by operating a team of security instructors. Thanks to this, there is a high demand for facility security, escort security, machine security, and job-tailored requests.
