[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] Dong-Eui Science University (President Kim Young-do) was selected on the 9th as a training institution for the ‘2021 Vocational Competency Development Training Project’ promoted by Busan City.

As Busan City's representative vocational training project, it supports customized vocational training and job placement for Busan citizens who wish to find employment.

The training is conducted in two tracks: ‘Customized training course for youth and middle-aged unemployment relief for the general public’ and ‘Customized employment support course by university department for university graduates.’

Busan City has finalized the selection of 44 training courses and supports vocational training for a total of 1,145 people.

The Industry-Academic Cooperation Group of Dong-Eui Science University, selected for the general course, operates a Beauty Healthcare Coordinator training course with a recruitment scale of 20 people. The Department of Beauty, majoring in Skin Care, is in charge of education operation and trainee management.

The Beauty Healthcare Coordinator is a new customized occupation required by industries, providing total skin care services in the anti-aging industry and medical tourism industry sectors.

Dong-Eui Science University will recruit trainees until March, and anyone aged 18 or older residing in Busan who is unemployed can participate. Vulnerable trainees can receive full support for training fees, and those who find employment after completing the training will receive a job success allowance.

The education will be conducted from April to August over 17 weeks and 280 hours, consisting of theory, practice, on-the-job training, expert lectures, and industrial site visits.

The university plans to help trainees quickly adapt to the practical field through practical and on-the-job training support from companies that have employment agreements.

Professor Jang Jeong-hyun of the Department of Beauty, majoring in Skin Care, said, “The first specialized program in the Busan area that combines medical care and beauty is starting,” and added, “We will devote efforts to creating new jobs and revitalizing the local economy so that Busan can leap forward as a medical tourism hub in addition to international tourism in the post-COVID-19 era.”
