3 TAEKWONDO DEPARTMENT THE INTERNATIONAL TAEKWONDO DEPARTMENT! QUALITY CONTENTS, MODERN TOOLS! The International Taekwondo Department was initially born from the dream of two men to harmonize tradition and modernity of Korean martial arts by using the technologies of the future. But it is also the result of the hope to give access to a precise knowledge in the specific field of sport performance to athletes and trainers all around the World, whether they be athletes, great champions, modest practitioners, or instructors teaching in the dojangs of their cities.! The purpose International Taekwondo Department is finally and above all to allow individuals to become better martial arts practitioners and to become better individuals, since we believe that both aspects are tightly linked together! With a board of teachers including Korean as well as international teachers, highly-qualified masters, former international champions, and sport doctors, the International Taekwondo Department uses HSCU#s advanced technology to create a new and totally innovative method of learning martial arts and sports.! With this aim, the Institute has developed an important international network and works today in cooperation with prestigious institutes such as the World Taekwondo Academy, the European Taekwondo Union or the Kukkiwon.! Vision of the International Taekwondo Department:! OUR PARTNERS! ETU! THE INSTITUTIONS AND FEDERATIONS! THE UNIVERSITIES!

Important agreements are also in process, particularly with European universities.! OUR PARTNERS 2! 3!

5 PROGRAMS MARTIAL ARTS PROGRAMS OF HSCU! ESSENTIAL TRAINING CAMPS! In order to match the cyber education with martial arts, it seemed obvious to us that we had to set up training camps to verify the level of the practitioners and to check if they learnt the on-line contents correctly during the year.! That is the reason why, in parallel with its cyber platform on Internet, the International Taekwondo Department has also developed a platform to welcome students on site in South Korea for training camps. They are set up during two or three weeks at the end of the year and taught by the teachers of the Institute.! If we have enough students from the same country, we can also send one of our experts to do the training camp on site.! EXAMPLE OF ONE YEAR OF STUDIES! One year of studies is generally as follows:! From March to June, the student follows his courses on Internet and passes his exams (normally two weeks each semester, one in April and one in June).! July and August are summer holiday period or training camp period for students who wish to take it in summer.! The second semester is from September to December. The winter training period is from December to February. After the camp, the results are sent to the student, so he will know if he has passed or graduated.! Story of a student, Arber Bajra!
