[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Jin-hyung] The Honam Training Institute of the Small and Medium Business Corporation will hold a free opening event called "Long Time No See" from the 29th to the 31st of the upcoming vacation season to commemorate the reopening of its dormitory.

As a public training institute, the Honam Training Institute contributed to COVID-19 efforts by providing its dormitory facilities as Gwangju City’s 2nd Residential Treatment Center for eight months starting from September last year, and received an institutional commendation from Gwangju City as a model case for realizing social value.

Since the end of facility use in May, with support from Gwangju City and the Central Disaster and Safety Countermeasures Headquarters, the institute carried out facility repairs and completely replaced equipment such as mattresses, reopening at the end of July. In line with the vacation season, it prepared an event to open the accommodations free of charge not only to employees of small and medium enterprises but also to residents from other regions and within the city, promoting a more comfortable and safe transformed Honam Training Institute and fostering coexistence with customers.

This event was posted on the Small and Medium Business Corporation’s website and local government official tourism blogs, recruiting up to 100 participants through Google Forms. Visitors will be provided with benefits such as a welcome package, breakfast, local tourism guidance, smart factory learning center experience (VR experience), and late-night movie screenings.

The Honam Training Institute serves 3,000 trainees annually and offers 85 regular courses in smart manufacturing, root technology, and management quality fields, as well as various policy training and on-site corporate training, striving to enhance the competitiveness of small and medium venture enterprise employees.

Jung Yeon-wook, Director of the Honam Training Institute, said, “Although for a short period, we hope that the Small and Medium Business Corporation Training Institute will serve as a resort for employees of small and medium venture enterprises, allowing them to directly experience comfortable and safe facilities and contribute to revitalizing the local economy through tourism in the Honam region. We thank Gwangju Metropolitan City for their cooperation and look forward to becoming a more approachable Honam Training Institute for trainees and local residents.”
