LG CNS has signed a reseller partnership agreement for OpenAI’s education-focused service, ChatGPT Edu, expanding beyond the ChatGPT Enterprise reseller qualification it previously secured.
The company said on the 27th it will begin supplying ChatGPT Edu to educational institutions in South Korea under the agreement with OpenAI.
ChatGPT Edu is designed for schools and universities, supporting campus work such as generating lecture materials, organizing research data and reports, and providing personalized tutoring. LG CNS said the service offers the same security environment as ChatGPT Enterprise, allowing use without concerns about sensitive information leaks, and is priced to reduce the burden on educational institutions.
Adoption is already accelerating overseas. Arizona State University, the California State University system and Harvard University are using ChatGPT Edu, and Estonia has introduced it across its secondary education system to expand AI use by students and teachers.
In South Korea, however, the market is still in the early stages. LG CNS plans to roll out an introductory tour program and AI education seminars for major universities in the Seoul metropolitan area. It is also reviewing plans to work with universities and OpenAI on developing AI education curricula and running hackathons.
The company’s dedicated ChatGPT organization, the “LG CNS OpenAI Launch Center,” will provide full-stack services from adoption consulting to technical support. The group includes AI engineers, architects and consultants, along with OpenAI-specialized engineers.
LG CNS began supplying ChatGPT Enterprise in February and has since secured about 10 corporate customers across manufacturing, chemicals, finance and biotech, it said.
“After rapidly expanding customer use cases through the ChatGPT Enterprise business, this Edu reseller agreement allows us to extend into the education AX field,” said Kim Tae-hoon, vice president and head of LG CNS’ AI Cloud Business Division. “We will support more students and educational institutions in boosting learning and research productivity through AI.”
