Two Korean Studies Workshops for American Educators in 2009, co-hosted by the Foundation and Yonsei University, will be held from June 25 to July 8, and July 9 to 22, respectively.

Forty participants from the United States at each workshop will have an opportunity to enhance their knowledge of Korea.

The workshop program includes lectures on various topics of Korean Studies, visits to the DMZ, Cheong Wa Dae (the Blue House), Goyang Foreign Language High School, and Changdeok Royal Palace, as well as a field trip to Gyeong-ju.

The workshop is designed to enhance mutual understanding between the people of Korea and the United States by inviting groups of U.S. educators to visit Korea, and encouraging them to share their experiences with fellow Americans upon their return.
