When choosing vocational training, check the conditions and class content that suit you first, rather than the title “free.” Support for public training for foreigners may vary depending on conditions such as residency status or employment insurance. You must check your qualifications in the Seoul City Employment Preparation Guide and current recruitment announcements, and do not assume that all foreigners receive the same support.
Create a course comparison table
Write down the skills you want to learn, language of instruction, start and end dates, weekly attendance schedule, and in-person location. Check whether the cost of textbooks, tests, and materials is separate from the tuition fee. If you work concurrently, it is a good idea to calculate whether you can attend, including travel time.
Contact us before applying
Please explain your residency status, work and insurance status and check if you are eligible for support. Also ask if the course is at an entry level or requires a pre-test. You can reduce unexpected burdens by separately checking completion criteria, absence handling, mid-term cancellation costs, and qualification test examination fees.
Thinking after graduation
Completing training, obtaining certification, and being able to get a job are different steps. Please check whether the term “employment linkage” refers to a guarantee of employment or simple counseling support. Save the organization and contact information in charge of the announcement, and do not apply any materials that have expired during the recruitment period to the next period. If you decide on the actual product you will create or the task you will learn and then select the course, it will be easier to connect it to your job search goal than just collecting a certificate.
