Abstract

This study examined the effectiveness of the 'Youth Technology Transfer Specialist Training Project' for students of natural sciences and engineering colleges implemented using a 2018 revised supplementary budget. The cause and effect research model composed of project satisfaction, results of employment, and start-up. Five factors were developed based on a literature review. A total of 2,363 questionnaires were collected through 66 Industrial-Academic Cooperation Groups participating in the Youth TLO (Technology Licensing Officer) program for an empirical test. SPSS 23.0 was used to analyze the obtained data empirically and verify the hypotheses. The result of the analysis showed that the following five independent factors were significant for the program satisfaction as well as the program satisfaction for the performance of employment and start-up: 1) project operation-related recruitment and selection, 2) training support, and 3) working conditions, 4) control of the project, and 5) activity support. This study verified the level of satisfaction with the program empirically using comprehensive data. In terms of practical implications, improvement of operational programs helps improve program satisfaction, and in turn, results in improvement of employment and start-up of youth to achieve the goals of government.

본 연구는 2018년 정부의 추경사업으로 시행된 이공계 중심 청년 일자리 창출과제인 '청년TLO 육성사업'의 효과성을 검증하는 데 목적이 있다. 선행연구를 통하여 사업 만족도와 취·창업 성과에 영향을 미치는 5가지 요인의 인과 모형을 도출하였다. 실증연구를 위하여 사업을 실행하고 있는 전국 66개 대학의 산학협력단을 통해 청년TLO를 대상으로 설문지를 배포하여 2,363개를 수집하였다. SPSS 23.0 통계패키지를 이용하여 모형의 실증분석을 실시하였다. 분석결과, 사업 만족도에 영향을 미치는 요인으로 선정한 1) 모집·선발, 2) 교육 지원, 3) 근로조건, 4) 사업 관리, 5) 활동 지원의 5개 변수 모두 유의한 변수로 나타났고 사업 만족도는 취·창업 성과에 미치는 변수임을 확인했다. 본 연구는 청년 TLO의 성과분석을 위한 광범위한 최초의 실증연구이며 연구자의 독립변수 모두가 사업 만족도에 영향을 미치는 인자임을 확인했다. 실무적인 시사점으로 사업 운영요소의 향상은 사업 만족도를 향상시키고, 이는 정부의 목표인 청년의 취·창업 성과 제고를 위해 필요한 요소임을 추정할 수 있다. 하지만 본 연구의 한계점으로는 취·창업 성과 지표로 객관적 지표가 아닌 주관적 취·창업 인지도 조사이기에 모형의 해석에 유의할 필요가 있다고 판단된다.
