As generative artificial intelligence (AI) rapidly spreads in the tourism content creation sector, practical training programs are increasing. The Seoul Tourism Foundation announced on August 4 that it will hold the 'Seoul Tourism AI Content Creation Course' on the 24th, inviting participants to apply.
Applications will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis until the 14th.
This training will focus on how to utilize generative AI in actual content production. Participants will learn step-by-step processes for content creation, including idea planning and prompt writing using AI tools like ChatGPT and Gemini, as well as generating images and music and mobile-based video editing.
The course will also introduce how generative AI is being utilized in the tourism sector and the latest technological trends. Emphasizing practical experience over theoretical instruction, the program aims to enhance participants' capabilities for immediate application in the field.
Following this course, the foundation plans to offer advanced training for participants to plan and produce their own tourism content. The goal is to provide a comprehensive experience of the entire content creation process through subsequent programs, thereby enhancing practical skills. Details about the training schedule and application methods can be found on the Seoul Tourism Foundation's website.
To support content creation, the 'Seoul Tourism Plaza Creative Membership' is also available year-round. Individuals involved in tourism-related organizations, travel creators, and those interested in video content production can join. Members receive benefits, including one free monthly use of the Seoul Tourism Plaza Online Media Center studio.
In the first half of this year, the Seoul Tourism Foundation conducted 15 digital content creation training sessions for tourism professionals, university students, international students, and job seekers, with a total of 184 participants. The average satisfaction rating for the training was 4.89 out of 5. Additionally, 57 new members joined the Online Media Center Creative Membership, continuing to support content creation activities after the training.
Lee Soo-taek, head of the Planning and Management Division at the Seoul Tourism Foundation, stated, "Generative AI is a key technology rapidly transforming the tourism content creation environment. We will continue to nurture digital content talent in the tourism sector centered around the Seoul Tourism Plaza, equipped with professional equipment and training programs."
