Yeonggwang-gun Recruiting Trainees for 'Caregiver Training Course'

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Jeon Seong] Yeonggwang-gun, Jeollanam-do (Governor Kim Jun-seong) announced on the 19th that it will recruit trainees for the "Caregiver Training Course" to train personnel needed for long-term care and create jobs for the unemployed from the 22nd to the 29th.

The caregiver vocational training has been conducted since 2016 to strengthen employment capabilities for the unemployed and job seekers in the region, and its popularity is increasing as demand for long-term care services rapidly rises in the aging society.

This training aims to solve unemployment issues among middle-aged and older adults who urgently need jobs and to prepare for employment demand in care institutions and home care by selecting 30 vulnerable job seekers and fully supporting the education costs required to obtain the caregiver certification.

The selection targets are low-income groups vulnerable to employment and youth under 45 years old, with priority given to trainees with a strong willingness to work.

The training will be conducted at Cheongram Caregiver Training Institute, a professional caregiver training institution, from the 14th of next month to November 5th, lasting about four months, consisting of a total of 275 hours of theoretical education and field practice required for caregivers.

A county official said, "Through this training, we plan to continuously support the acquisition of the caregiver certification, which is considered a promising job in the aging era, and to connect it to employment."
