Principles of Providing Home Education Programs
- Participants are not allowed to take programs of a similar nature or the same household cannot take multiple programs during the same period. Additionally, each individual is not allowed to take the same programs at the same time (e.g. multicultural student mentoring project, language development support project, Korean language education).
- In areas where multicultural family support centers are not installed or home education programs are not provided, participants may take linked programs between nearby regional centers.
