Dr. Richard Birkel, Executive Director of the RCI, traveled to Korea in October 2009 to meet with representatives from the Korean Digital University. In an effort to provide support to the growing numbers of caregivers throughout Korea, KDU and RCI are collaborating to develop an online caregiving certificate program. KDU is also interested in adapting the RCI's signature training program, Caring for You, Caring for Me: Education & Support for Professional and Family Caregivers, for usage throughout Korea.
