During the training, Shin Hyunsook, lead teacher at Changsin Kindergarten in Cheongju, was invited to give a lecture on "Sharing Lessons for Teachers' Professional Growth." The session included discussions on how teachers can grow and regain self-esteem through teaching, as well as sharing concerns experienced by teachers in the classroom.

Next, Oh Miseon, vice principal of the affiliated kindergarten at Guyam Elementary School, led a session on "A Happy Educational Community Through Healthy Communication."
