Qualifications for applying as a cooperating instructor include those with a major or experience in the field of recruitment or those with related qualifications, and those who can participate in required workshops and capacity building training programs operated by the district. There are no regional restrictions, but Yangcheon-gu residents will receive extra points. If you wish to apply, refer to the notice board on the district office website, fill out the application form, and submit it to the person in charge by email along with supporting documents.
Before starting full-scale activities, the district plans to hold a preliminary workshop for selected cooperative instructors to foster basic skills and strengthen capabilities.
Meanwhile, the cooperative instructor support project introduced in 2017 is greatly contributing to the development of students’ creativity and artistry as well as improving the quality of classes by dispatching specialized instructors of various subjects to schools, and is also establishing itself as a new career development venue along with the creation of local jobs. A total of 1,052 cooperative instructors have been selected so far, and about 420 of them have given lectures tailored to each school.
Yangcheon-gu Mayor Lee Ki-jae said, “The cooperative instructor support project is a meaningful project that enriches the public education curriculum with high-quality educational programs,” and added, “We will continue to support the discovery and operation of substantial educational programs that help develop the infinite potential and creativity of our children, so that Yangcheon can become a city where the potential of future talents blossoms.”
