Chosun University announced on March 12, 2026, that it has produced a total of 155 successful candidates in the 2026 teacher appointment examination, with 124 passing for public schools and 31 for private schools.

This achievement is based on the tally of graduates and current students who obtained teacher qualifications through Chosun University’s College of Education, Graduate School of Education, and teacher training courses in general departments, aggregated using data from education offices across cities and provinces nationwide.

The successful candidates are distributed across the country: 32 in Gwangju, 64 in Jeonnam, 22 in Gyeonggi, 10 in Jeonbuk, 9 in Incheon, and 5 in Chungnam, among other regions. By subject, the numbers are as follows: 21 for Korean, 16 for Mathematics, 16 for Special Education, 15 for English, 12 for Physics, 12 for Physical Education, 11 for Biology, 9 for Chemistry, 9 for Earth Science, 7 for Mechanical Engineering, 6 for Social Studies, and 5 for Music, showing a well-balanced outcome across all subject areas.

Chosun University has been running systematic support programs every year to increase the pass rate for the teacher appointment examination. Notably, as part of the University Innovation Support Project, the "Future Teacher Talent Development: Leadership 1:1 Coaching" program has strengthened the class design capabilities of prospective teachers.

In addition, the university is enhancing practical readiness through step-by-step, tailored programs, such as one-on-one individualized essay feedback for educational theory, one-on-one teaching demonstration consulting in collaboration with current teachers, practice in developing teaching and learning plans, and in-depth interview coaching.

Lee Gwan-gyu, Dean of the College of Education and Graduate School of Education, stated, "The fact that Chosun University produces a large number of successful candidates for the teacher appointment examination every year is not only due to the university’s outstanding faculty raising students’ teaching and subject expertise to a high level, but also the result of operating various programs to prepare for the second-round teaching demonstrations and interviews."

Meanwhile, Chosun University recently received the highest A grade for its College of Education and a B grade for both its general teacher training program and Graduate School of Education in the "6th Teacher Training Institution Competency Assessment." This is an improvement of one level over the 5th assessment, once again demonstrating the university’s excellence in teacher training capabilities.
