[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Gwanak-gu (Mayor Park Jun-hee) is recruiting students for online lifelong learning educational and cultural courses to be held from July to September.

The district announced that it is operating this program to run non-face-to-face online courses in response to the changing educational environment due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic, to fill the gap in lifelong learning, and to support continuous lifelong learning for residents.

The program consists of 34 courses in 6 adult categories including vocational skill improvement, computer, foreign languages, and culture and arts, and 7 courses in 2 children’s categories including creativity enhancement and after-school classes.

The tuition fee is 60,000 KRW for adult courses and 30,000 KRW for children’s courses. A 50% discount on tuition is provided to vulnerable groups such as seniors aged 65 and over, persons with disabilities, and single-parent families. Courses with fewer than 50% of the enrollment capacity will be canceled.

Detailed program information by category can be found on the Gwanak-gu Office education portal, and residents who wish to enroll can apply online through the Gwanak-gu Office website.

The application period begins on the 14th with priority registration for socially disadvantaged residents living in Gwanak-gu, followed by general Gwanak-gu residents on the 15th, and residents from other regions on the 16th. Applications are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis until the 29th.

Meanwhile, the Gwanak-gu Lifelong Learning Center is making every effort to provide continuous and systematic lifelong learning opportunities to residents by offering high-quality programs for various groups, from 5-year-old children to housewives, students, office workers, and seniors, so that all residents can enjoy knowledge and culture.

Mayor Park Jun-hee of Gwanak-gu said, “We have opened non-face-to-face lifelong learning courses to continue learning opportunities that have become distant due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic,” and added, “We will do our best to create a leading educational Gwanak-gu where residents can continuously learn together and grow together.”
