[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Sang-hyun] Yangsan City, Gyeongnam, is recruiting learners for the 'Nighttime Secondary Education Equivalency Course' for adults who missed the opportunity to receive basic education, on a first-come, first-served basis at the Yangsan Workers' Comprehensive Welfare Center until April 2.
The city has been operating the secondary education equivalency course since last year, and this year, it established the first nighttime course in Gyeongnam to meet the needs of working learners.
This educational program allows learners to study the secondary education curriculum for free over three years, and those who attend more than two-thirds of the classes and complete the course can receive a middle school graduation certificate.
The education will be conducted over nine months from April 5 to December 16. The location of the education is the Yangsan Workers' Comprehensive Welfare Center.
