The Certified Career Experience for Educational Donation program is a system that evaluates and certifies institutions offering high-quality, free career experience programs to youth, based on a comprehensive assessment of the program's expertise, safety, and sustainability.

The Korea Classic Translation Institute has been operating career experience programs tailored to its unique strengths, designed to help students from local middle and high school classes and clubs easily understand the process of translating classics into Korean.

With this certification, the Korea Classic Translation Institute will retain its status as a certified institution for three years, until December 23, 2028. The institute also plans to actively utilize the certification mark and plaque granted by the Ministry of Education for external promotion.

The institute's career experience program, 'I Am Also a Classic Translator!', can be applied for through 'Dream Path,' a public service platform operated by the Ministry of Education to support diverse career experiences for students.

Director Kim Eonjong stated, "This certification is the second we have received since our initial certification in 2021, and it is further recognition of the Korea Classic Translation Institute's capabilities as a youth career experience institution. We will continue to offer programs that help young people explore various career paths and nurture their dreams in the humanities."
