Exploring the Current Status of Qualifications, Professionalism, and Roles for Cultural Heritage Educators

The study was conducted in recognition of the need to identify the scope and scope of educators who are implementing cultural heritage education in various educational settings and to unify the variously called names and roles. For this purpose, data on the qualifications and training programs of cultural heritage educators promoted by the Cultural Heritage Administration, the Korea Heritage Service, UNESCO, and the Center for Heritage and Cultural Heritage Education were collected. As a result, it was found that elementary and secondary school teachers, museum and art gallery majors, cultural arts educators, cultural tourism interpreters, and lifelong educators are the current pool of professionals with nationally recognized qualifications to engage in cultural heritage education. In addition, the cultural heritage education specialist course implemented by the Korea Heritage Agency was found to be the only cultural heritage education specialist qualification system currently underway. Based on the above, five areas of expertise (planning, operation, analysis, evaluation, and teaching) and five roles (planner, commentator, researcher, evaluator, and educator) were proposed for a nationally recognized cultural heritage education qualification program.
