The Importance of Acquiring National Certification for Environmental Educators
These days, there are so many words like carbon, ESG, and eco-friendly, so I will skip the importance of the environment and the job prospects, and I’ll start by explaining the simple things first. We do work related to environmental education targeting various age groups in various fields such as professional environmental organizations, general social groups, schools, and companies.
Today’s introduction is about providing full support for the educational expenses required to acquire a third-class national qualification for environmental educators and selecting them as interns. Level 3 certification can be obtained by completing the course run by the environmental educator training institute. If there are not many training institutes nationwide and the education fee is close to 1 million won, it may be a burdensome amount to acquire a license if employment is not guaranteed. You can also work as an intern in an organization.
We do not recruit many people, but since interest in environmental protection is growing and policies are changing around the world, it would be nice to take this opportunity to apply with interest in environmental educators. Opportunities are expected to become more diversified in the future as environmental education support projects are being carried out in various institutions such as kindergartens, daycare centers, companies, and religious organizations with government support. I’m looking forward to it because it’s the first recruitment since this year, when the name was changed to environmental educator and it was upgraded to a ministerial qualification. Anyone interested in the environment is encouraged to apply.
Finishing up…
Today, after being upgraded to a minister-level national qualification, we learned about the application method and benefits for the first environmental educator national qualification. In the next 100 years, resource depletion will be serious, and several science channels are warning about the environmental crisis. In this way, more and more interest in the environment is growing and it will be reborn as such a job that can be performed with more jobs and a great sense of mission for environmental experts who are becoming more specialized and specialized in it.
We recommend that you take this opportunity to make a wise choice to save the environment and design the future! Thank you for reading to the end today. We look forward to seeing you with more benefits in the future. always be healthy!
