This course was a flagship program promoted after Pocheon City was designated as a Lifelong Learning Opportunity Special Zone. The city operated the "Digital Literacy Education Village Instructor Training Course" to improve information accessibility for marginalized groups who experience difficulties in using digital technologies.

The digital literacy education village instructors trained through the program will support digitally vulnerable groups, including the elderly, so they can actively participate in the information society. The city plans to connect these instructors with local hubs such as senior centers to continue practical training and education. In addition, related clubs will be operated in parallel to strengthen the foundation for ongoing activities.

An official from Pocheon City stated, "This course was meaningful not only because it provided an opportunity for local activists to develop digital competencies, but also because it directly fostered the talent needed by the local community. We will continue our efforts to establish a virtuous cycle of learning in the region through lifelong education."
