한국농업전문학교의 창업농 단기직업훈련과정 요구와 운영방안

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to assess the needs of the short-term training program for future venture farmers in Korea National Agricultural College (KNAC) and to develop operational strategies of the training program. The research methods used were the extensive review of literature, needs assessment, questionnaire survey, and face-to-face interviews, and consultations with a panel of experts in the study.The introduction of the short-term training programs for future venture farmers in KNAC was highly supported among the graduates and incumbent students. However, the faculty and staff members tended to reject the introduction of the short-term training programs but if it would not reduce the current regular program, they tended to accept it. Thus, this study suggested the overall operational strategies for the introduction of the short-term training program. The operational strategies included the targeted trainee, three basic program models, operational schedule by year, needed staff and facilities, budget, and the following road map including the pilot operating. The basic program models were developed based on their targeted trainee, kinds of the crops or livestock, program duration, and trainee benefits.
