Korvia EPIK Pre-Orientation
An airport welcome, a Korvia welcome package, and year-round meetups — our way of making sure every teacher feels part of the Korvia community from day one.
In light of COVID-19 and recent events, Korvia no longer hosts formal pre-orientation events. Instead, we greet every teacher at the airport and plan several parties and get-togethers throughout the year to keep us all connected.
From Airport Arrival to Year-Round Community
Our approach is lighter than a formal orientation, but more personal — so you meet real Korvia people from the moment you land.
Airport Arrival Welcome
Come find the Korvia team when you land in Korea. We greet every teacher personally, hand over your Korvia welcome package, and make sure you get on your EPIK orientation bus without any stress.
Year-Round Get-Togethers
Instead of one big pre-orientation event, we host several parties and casual meetups throughout the year so you can connect with other Korvia teachers across different provinces.
Always-On Community
Between events, the Korvia recruiter team stays in touch for contract renewals, city transfers, and any questions that come up during your placement. You're never left on your own.
A Small Thank You When You Land
A token of our gratitude for all your hard work. The welcome package is designed to make it easier to settle in during your first few days in South Korea — and we hand it out at the airport, so come find us when you arrive!
Korvia Eco Bag
A reusable tote to carry your essentials as you settle into Korea — handy for airport transfers, grocery runs, and weekend trips.
Korvia Water Bottle
Stay hydrated from day one. A simple but essential piece of kit for your placement city, classroom, and commute.
Hand Fan (Summer Arrivals)
For teachers arriving during Korea's hot and humid summer months, a cute Korvia hand fan to help you beat the heat.
Korvia Pen
A Korvia-branded pen to sign your first contract, take notes at EPIK orientation, and start your first lesson plans.
And a Few More Surprises
We love adding small extras to the package — think seasonal goodies, snacks, and keepsakes that welcome you to Korea.
Tip:Keep an eye out for the Korvia team at Incheon Airport. We'll be waiting with the welcome packages and ready to help you find your EPIK orientation transport.
