The 'Resident Technology School' aims to foster a social economy ecosystem by providing residents with practical technology education needed in daily life, training professionals, and thereby creating new jobs and income.


The district plans to conduct two Resident Technology School courses, the 'Housing Course' and the 'Care Course,' reflecting local demand factors such as the increase in single-person households and elderly population, and housing aging.


The 'Housing Course' offers learning in wallpapering and flooring, simple home repairs, and future housing projects like rooftop greening, while the 'Care Course' provides education on emotional support, cleaning, and other daily convenience services, aiming to nurture care personnel within the community.


Both courses will be conducted as hands-on training linked with local social economy enterprises.


After completing the education, students will be connected to employment opportunities within local social economy enterprises or provided with education and consulting on establishing regional management enterprises so that they can directly establish social economy enterprises using the skills and capabilities learned at the Resident Technology School.



Mayor Kim Seon-gap said, “The Resident Technology School project is meaningful not only in helping to understand the social economy but also in creating new jobs and income based on the local community. Through this project, we will build a regional network collaboration system to activate the social economy and further strive to contribute to improving residents' quality of life.”
