Abstract

This study was conducted to pave the way for the development and operation of education and training programs to nurture skilled North Korean construction workers. Such programs would help to meet the expanded demand for setting up infrastructure, which is the backbone of the two Koreas' economic cooperation and mutual development. To achieve this initiative, the targets and scopes of education and training were determined by classifying business types for education and training purposes by construction sector. Furthermore, each education and training course and their allocated time frames were analyzed. Issues related to inter-Korean economic cooperation in the border area were also analyzed to determine regional characteristics. Education and training programs were thus classified into three types of infrastructure units: society, industry, and life infrastructure units. Social infrastructure units are the common demand of the whole border area, including construction of roads, railways, and harbors, as well as inspection and maintenance. Industrial infrastructure units are programs for industrial facilities centering on the designated special economic zone in the western part of the border area. Life infrastructure units are programs for infrastructure facilities such as large, complex facilities and residential facilities for the eastern tourist belt side.

본 연구는 남북 경제 협력 및 상호 발전의 근간이 되는 인프라 건설 수요의 확대에 따른 북한 건설기능인력양성을 위한 교육 훈련 프로그램 개발 및 운영 방안 마련을 위해 수행되었다. 이를 위해 건설분야별 교육 훈련을 위한 직종의 분류와 각 교육 훈련 과정의 개요와 편성 시간 등을 분석하여 건설현장 기능인력 양성의 관점에서 교육 훈련 대상 및 범위를 확정하였다. 그리고 접경지역 남북한 경제협력 관련 이슈를 분석하여 지역적 특성을 도출하고, 이러한 특성을 고려한 북한 건설기능인력의 양성을 위한 교육 훈련 프로그램을 사회-산업-생활 인프라의 3가지 유닛으로 구분하였다. 사회인프라 유닛은 접경지역 전체의 공통 수요로 도로, 철도, 항만 등의 건설과 함께 점검 및 유지보수가 포함된다. 산업인프라 유닛은 접경지 서쪽의 경제특구(혹은 추가로 지정되는 경제특구)를 중심으로 산업설비 수요 대비를 위한 프로그램이다. 생활인프라 유닛은 경제 특구 등의 배후 주거단지와 접경지 내륙, 동쪽 관광 벨트 구측을 위한 대형복합시설, 주거시설, 라이프라인 등 기반 시설에 대응하는 프로그램이다.
