The Current Status and the Future Tasks of Online Training Courses for Overseas Hangeul School Teachers: Focusing on the analysis of the satisfaction survey

This research is intended to examine the current status of online training courses for overseas Hangeul School teachers (the training courses for Korean Language teachers), which have been successfully held for 5 times since 2009, after Digital Seoul Culture Arts University and Overseas Koreans Foundation made a memorandum of understanding (MOU) in Feburary, 2009, for overseas Koreans’ education. The research is also intended to seek for the educational tasks and the future improvement of these courses, by analyzing the satisfaction survey. Therefore, following the introduction in the 1st chapter, the 2nd chapter focuses on the overall contents of the online training courses for Hangeul School teachers. The 3rd chapter anaylzes the satisfaction survey of the course trainees. The 4th chapter seeks for the future task and improvement of the training courses, as the 5th chapter suggests the conclusion. The management methods, which were studied in this research, are believed to pave the right way for the online training courses for Hangeul School teachers (the training courses for Korean language teachers). Lastly, although the number of the trainees of the online training courses for Hangeul School teachers (the training courses for Korean language teachers) has approximately reached 800 around the world, only a few of them have finally passed the Korean language teaching authorization test ― written tests and interviews included ― and acquired the 3rd level of the Hanguel school teacher certificate. This proves the fact that the basic conditions are not well facilitated for Hangeul School teachers to take the Korean language teaching proficiency test. Accordingly, it is necessary for officials of government organizations and government-related institutes to have keen interests in the shortage of Hanguel School teachers and contemplate a more active solution. These organizations include Human Resources Development Service of Korea, which administers the Korean language teaching proficiency test, The National Institute of Korean Language, which is in charge of qualifying Hangeul School teachers and issuing the Hanguel School teacher certificates, Overseas Koreans Foundation, which has provided the online training courses for Hangeul School teachers (the training courses for Korean language teachers).
