Ringkeubeurik
Ringkeubeurik is a 1:1 free consultation platform for learners preparing for academic credit bank system certifications, comparing and designing quotes from each education provider based on total cost rather than the advertised tuition.
Highlights
- Guides you to compare education provider quotes from a 'total cost' perspective rather than the advertised tuition, and points out hidden expenses in advance such as additional semesters, textbooks, separate practicum costs, and retaking courses.
- The assigned linker confirms your final education, goals, schedule, and budget, then compares total costs by education provider side by side on the same basis and designs a plan to reduce unnecessary courses, helping you establish a plan within budget.
- Reflects the fact that the practicum cost structure varies by certification, such as Social Worker Level 2 and Childcare Teacher certification, and presents a method of comparing by item.
- Provides a quote comparison checklist (whether based on the same credits, whether textbook fees are included, practicum support and costs, whether learning management is included, additional cost conditions) so learners can verify for themselves.

Frequently asked questions
Q. Is Ringkeubeurik consultation paid?
It is conducted as a 1:1 free consultation, and you can apply by participating in the Naver Form survey.
Q. Why do quotes differ by education provider?
Because the tuition per credit basis, whether textbook fees are included, and the scope of practicum and learning management support differ by education provider, quote differences occur even for the same course.
Q. How is the total cost calculated?
Multiply the tuition per credit by the number of credits to be completed, add textbook fees and practicum costs, and then add official fees (registration 4,000 KRW, credit recognition application 1,000 KRW per credit).
Q. Do official fees also differ by education provider?
No. The learner registration fee of 4,000 KRW and the credit recognition application fee of 1,000 KRW per credit are paid to the National Institute for Lifelong Education and are the same regardless of which education provider you choose.
Q. What should I prepare when applying for consultation?
Preparing your final education, target certification, study schedule, and budget in advance helps you compare total costs by education provider on the same basis.
