AB - This study aims to explore the competency structure and curriculum framework for K-multicultural specialists based on long-term resident married immigrant women in the Busan region. Despite their extended residency and advanced bilingual proficiency, married immigrants frequently face structural barriers such as the lack of official academic degrees and age discrimination within the labor market. To address these limitations, this research establishes a systematic educational framework structured around three core dimensions: economic-practical, learning-career, and domestic-international approaches.
Utilizing a mixed-methods design that combines a two-round Delphi survey(with 35 expert panels) and Focus Group Interviews(FGI), the study identified content validity ratios(CVR) and performed qualitative open coding.
The 3-pillar framework operates not as a predetermined rigid structure, but as an exploratory conceptual category inductively verified and refined through field-based narratives. The findings reveal that transforming the invisible experiential assets of married immigrants into officially certified professional competencies is crucial for fostering regional social integration. Furthermore, establishing a collaborative governance model between local universities and regional governments through the RISE initiative serves as an essential institutional catalyst. Ultimately, this study contributes to shifting multicultural policies from a paternalistic welfare approach toward sustainable community coexistence driven by empowered immigrant agents.
