Foreign diplomats representing various countries in Korea, including Singapore, Turkey, and Colombia, recently shared their experiences in public human resource development in Korea during a meeting held by the National Human Resources Development Institute (NHI) at its Gwacheon Global Leadership Campus. The meeting was attended by diplomats from 14 countries, including existing partner countries that have signed business agreements with NHI and participated in foreign civil service training programs.
During the meeting, the diplomats were introduced to NHI's foreign civil service training program and the case of Malaysia, which has been receiving training for its civil servants through NHI since 1984. Hazwan Aizat bin Noordin, the Charge d'Affaires at the Embassy of Malaysia in Seoul, emphasized the value of the training program, stating that "Malaysian civil servants learn about transparency, fairness, and innovation in the Korean public administration through training at NHI, which they then share and apply within their departments, resulting in capacity building for the entire organization."
This year, Malaysia will also participate in policy training courses on the Fourth Industrial Revolution and Korean culture (K-Content) run by NHI. Ahmed C. Boughedir, Ambassador of the Embassy of Tunisia to the Republic of Korea, expressed his interest in cooperation with NHI to develop public human resource development through linkages with Tunisian civil service training institutions.
Shin Young-sook, President of the National Human Resources Development Institute, emphasized the importance of international cooperation in the field of public human resources development, which has been provided through the institute's training programs for 6,368 foreign civil servants from 152 countries. She added that the meeting with the diplomats is expected to develop into a platform for cooperation to share information and experiences on civil service training, which is the foundation of the institute's policy capabilities.
