The main training content includes understanding environmental laws related to air and wastewater, operation and management of emission and prevention facilities, understanding procedures through self-measurement and reporting cases, compliance requirements for environmental technicians including responses to environmental pollution accidents, and information on statutory education for environmental technicians. Online lectures (related to climate crisis response and carbon neutrality, practical training for environmental technicians) will also be conducted in cooperation with the Ministry of Environment-designated 'Jeonnam Green Environment Support Center.'
