Hampyeong-gun Returns 30-Year-Old County Governor's Residence to Operate as a 'Lifelong Learning Center'

Lifelong Education 'Job Saenggak School' Opening

[Hampyeong=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Chunsu] Jeollanam-do Hampyeong-gun announced on the 23rd that the lifelong education program "Job Saenggak School" opened on the 22nd at the Hampyeong-gun Lifelong Learning Center.

The Hampyeong-gun Lifelong Learning Center, created by remodeling the Hampyeong-gun governor's official residence as a pledge of Mayor Lee Sang-ik, was officially designated and opened earlier this month, and started operating small-scale lifelong education courses for residents with five classes and 50 participants.

To provide more professional and diverse lifelong education, the county signed a public-academic agreement with Gwangju Women's University and is operating lifelong learning programs such as practical real estate auction, nail care, and florist courses in the first half of this year.

Additionally, various educational programs will be developed and operated, including programs linked to talent donation and job connection for returnees to farming and rural areas, such as daily life Yin-Yang Five Elements and aromatherapy.

Mayor Lee Sang-ik said, "I hope the former official residence, newly transformed into the Hampyeong-gun Lifelong Learning Center, will be used as an open space that helps local residents' leisure activities and acquisition of professional knowledge, and further serves as a stepping stone to careers."

Meanwhile, the opening ceremony of the Hampyeong-gun Lifelong Learning Center, scheduled for early this month, was canceled to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
