Most of the curricula of higher educational institutions, including universities, have been operated on a theoretical basis, and as a result, the academic talents have been mismatched with the competencies of industrial demand. Since 2015, the government project called "IPP-type Work and Learning Dual Program(WLDP)" is supporting four-year universities to minimize the academic talents mismatch. The purpose of the project is to improve the working ability of students by linking IPP with WLDP. However, the outcome of linking IPP to WLDP has been frustrating so far. In this study, "WLDP coupled with IPP" is proposed to reduce the perception gap between students and companies. In the suggested progress, student performs IPP first and WLDP second. Two examples have shown that the suggestion can be a quite effective process in matching student with the company.
