[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Sang-hyun] Yangsan City, Gyeongnam Province, is recruiting learners for a free elementary and secondary education recognition course for adults who missed the opportunity to receive basic education.

The free elementary and secondary education recognition course includes basic life education such as reading and writing Hangul, everyday numbers, basic English, and how to use a mobile phone. Additionally, those who attend more than two-thirds of the classes and complete the course will receive elementary and middle school diplomas.

Applications are accepted until March 3 at each eup, myeon, and dong administrative welfare center and welfare centers within the jurisdiction.

This year's program is divided into a total of 8 levels with 25 classes offered, including middle school level 1 and 2 recognition classes, elementary level 1 beginner and intermediate classes, elementary levels 2 and 3 recognition classes, and integrated elementary classes for day and night.

Classes are held at 14 locations including local administrative welfare centers, comprehensive social welfare centers, and cultural centers.

A city official said, “The Hangul class program has been increasingly well-received year after year as it provides illiterate adults with an opportunity to overcome basic education gaps and regain confidence,” adding, “We hope for interest and encouragement from the community so that elderly people who do not know Hangul can participate confidently and actively.”

For more details, refer to the announcements on the Yangsan City Lifelong Learning Center website or contact the Lifelong Learning Team of the Education and Sports Department at City Hall.
