초록

본 연구는 COVID-19 팬데믹 동안 (사)전국음악치료사협회(이하 협회)의 자격 인증 관리, 전문가 재교육 및 임상 현장 실습 운영에 필요한 대응 방안을 분석하여 향후 유사한 비상 상황에서 참고할 수 있는 기초 자료를 구축하는 데 목적이 있다. 이에 2020년 1월부터 2023년 8월까지 수집된 서면 자료와 관련 인터뷰 자료를 바탕으로 협회의 자격시험, 보수교육 및 학술 활동, 임상 현장에서의 방역 대응 전략을 검토하고 각 효과와 한계를 분석하였다. 더 나아가, 미국음악치료사자격검정기관(CBMT)과 미국음악치료학회(AMTA)가 팬데믹 기간 시행한 온라인 시험 관리 시스템, 보수교육, 학술 활동 내용 등을 비교 분석하여 협회 대응 전략의 강점과 방향성을 논의하였다. 연구 결과, 팬데믹 시기 동안 협회는 음악중재전문가(KCMT) 자격시험을 온라인으로 전환하여 자격 관리의 지속성을 확보하고, 비대면 보수교육과 학술 활동을 통해 교류와 주제다양성을 확대하였다. 또한, 국외 전문가 초빙 횟수를 늘려 국제 학술 교류를 강화하였다. 마지막으로 내담자 및 치료사의 안전을 위해 방역 지침과 심리적 지원 매뉴얼을 신속히 제공하였으며, 임상 현장에서 발생할 수 있는 위험 요소를 최소화하기 위한 다각적 전략을 실행하였다. 본 연구는 COVID-19 팬데믹이라는 역사적 선례를 통해 협회의 대응 전략을 분석하여, 향후 비상상황에서 음악치료 분야의 대응 전략 수립에 실질적인 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

This study examines the response strategies of the National Association of Korean Music Therapists (NAKMT) during the COVID-19 pandemic, focusing on certification management, professional re-education, and clinical practice operations. Based on written documents and interviews collected from January 2020 to August 2023, it analyzes NAKMT's measures in certification exams, continuing education, academic activities, and infection control, while comparing these strategies with those implemented by the CBMT(Certification Board for Music Therapists) and the AMTA (American Music Therapy Association). During the pandemic, NAKMT transitioned the KCMT certification exams to an online format to ensure continuity of credentialing processes. Additionally, it expanded remote continuing education and strengthened international collaboration by increasing the number of lectures from overseas experts. Furthermore, NAKMT provided infection control guidelines and psychological support manuals to enhance safety for both clients and therapists, thereby implementing strategies aimed at minimizing risks within clinical settings. This analysis provides practical insights into crisis management strategies in the field of music therapy based on the historical precedent of the COVID-19 pandemic.
