Learning Guide

A safer Korea, built together with the people.

Our educational philosophy

Our first purpose is not issuing certificates but raising people's safety awareness and training people who can find and prevent risks themselves and judge and act correctly in a crisis. Therefore only those who have completed sufficient study and the courses may take the qualification exam, which evenly covers concepts, legal principles, field cases, risk judgment, response order, personal information and assisting people with disabilities. After the exam, instead of answers, we show weak areas and the textbooks to review.

A culture of safety begins with protecting people's lives and everyday wellbeing, and extends to the safety of our companion animals and responsible care for them. In cultural and tourism settings, we will foster a mature safety culture that prevents risks while showing consideration for visitors, local residents and animals alike.

Training and certificates of completion are free

After signing up and verifying your email, you can start the lessons once the Chairperson approves your membership. Training and certificates of completion are free. Fees and operating details for the separate qualification exam and certificate issuance are yet to be confirmed.

Safety Culture Consultant · 4 core subjects

To receive a new course completion certificate, you must complete learning and completion assessments in all four regular subjects, as well as both advanced textbooks. Previously issued certificates remain valid.

Review questions are for re-learning and differ from the separate qualification exam question bank. The order is: complete 4 subjects → apply for the qualification exam yourself → Chairperson's approval → written and practical exams → final pass and issuance approval. The Chairperson issues and prints the certificate; successful candidates only check the issuance status. Existing exam criteria and registration notices remain unchanged.

After qualification · Internal appointed roles

These are not university faculty positions or national teaching qualifications, and appointment alone does not grant administrator rights.
