Haenam-gun, High Employment Rate Achieved in 'Employment and Entrepreneurship Classes' for Marriage Immigrant Women

Operation of After-School Instructor Certification Course in the First Half of This Year

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Hyun] The career interruption and marriage immigrant women's employment and entrepreneurship class operated by Haenam-gun, Jeollanam-do, is showing a high employment success rate and achieving results.

According to Haenam-gun on the 24th, since operating the women's employment and entrepreneurship class from 2018, 110 women have completed the training, and 47 have succeeded in finding employment.

In the first two years starting from 2018, through the caregiver certification class, 80 people completed the course, 69 obtained the caregiver certification, and 24 succeeded in employment.

In particular, last year, a brain (dementia) prevention instructor certification course was operated in response to increasing demand, with all 30 participants obtaining the certification, and 23 achieving employment.

The successful operation of the women's employment and entrepreneurship class is attributed to leading trainees to employment through substantial programs and customized education for certification acquisition, despite the difficulties posed by COVID-19.

The county plans to operate two classes this year, with a plan to run an after-school instructor certification class in the first half of the year, recruiting candidates until the 2nd of next month.

The after-school instructor training course is a professional manager training program that substitutes childcare functions for children and provides appropriate educational programs. After obtaining the certification, participants are expected to be linked to employment at elementary schools and local children's centers and to serve as professional volunteers at child welfare facilities.

A county official stated, “We will do our best to operate educational programs that support the acquisition of various certifications and enhance employment capabilities for career-interrupted and marriage immigrant women seeking employment and entrepreneurship.”
