[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Jungnang-gu (Mayor Ryu Kyung-gi) is recruiting 15 local women with career interruptions and young job-seeking women to participate in the cognitive learning counselor training and dispatch project "Job Are You? (JOB, Are You?)."

This project, conducted as part of the 2021 Jungnang-gu Gender Equality Fund support program, is in collaboration with the Chammanam Family Movement Association.

Through online and offline training from June to July, cognitive learning counselors will be trained, and from August to November, they will be dispatched to help improve the cognitive development and learning abilities of slow-learning children in the area.

The cognitive learning counselor training will be held over a total of 5 sessions and 27 hours, starting with an orientation on June 25 and ending on July 10.

The curriculum includes cognitive development, child and adolescent psychopathology, learning disabilities, and cognitive learning therapy, and participation is free of charge.

The training targets women residing in Jungnang-gu who are seeking employment, including women with career interruptions and young unemployed women, as well as women working in Jungnang-gu.

Women who wish to participate can download the application form from the Chammanam Family Movement Association website and submit it via email (hftc@hanmail.net).

Applications are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis until June 13, with 15 spots available. Applicants holding relevant certifications such as counselors, social workers, or childcare teachers will be given preference.

Mayor Ryu Kyung-gi of Jungnang-gu said, "I hope many people will participate in this project that can address both interrupted careers and children's cognitive development," and added, "This year as well, through the Gender Equality Fund support program, we will strive to increase employment opportunities for women seeking jobs and establish a culture of gender equality."

In March, the district announced a call for projects for the Gender Equality Fund support program, worth a total of 40 million KRW, to promote gender equality and protect women's human rights, selecting six projects.

In addition to "Job Are You," various programs such as "Dangyeonhan Seong," a sexual violence prevention education program for people with disabilities, and "Kkongnyang Kkongnyang Friendaddy," a family experience program for fathers and their adolescent children, have received enthusiastic responses from many residents. The selected projects will operate until November.
