Hana Financial Group has inaugurated a digital classroom at a special education school in Seoul, offering students with developmental disabilities an opportunity to explore career paths and hone workplace skills, the company announced on Wednesday. The classroom, situated at Miral School in Gangnam District, is tailored to provide hands-on experience in simulated real-world environments, such as eateries and coffee shops.
The facility is furnished with an array of digital learning aids, comprising a humanoid robot capable of voice interaction, virtual reality equipment for vocational training, multimedia kiosks, interactive LED whiteboards, and tablets for design exercises.

The corporation intends to replicate these facilities in two additional special education institutions in Incheon and Daejeon by the first half of the upcoming year. Furthermore, Hana is extending support to educators and other school personnel through programs designed to bolster their professional capabilities.
