[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] The ‘Humanities World in the Museum’ program at Dong-Eui University Museum has recently been re-certified as an ‘Education Donation Career Experience Certified Institution’ by the Ministry of Education and the Korea Chamber of Commerce and Industry.

The museum was first certified as a career experience institution in March 2017 and has been running the program for three years. The current re-certification period is also three years, from July 16 this year to July 15, 2023.

Dong-Eui University Museum offers various humanities experience activities for elementary, middle, and high school students, including pottery making, making solar-powered lighting with comb-patterned pottery, making curved jade necklaces, ancient archery, creating personalized artifact signatures (Perler Beads pouch), making rubbings and fans or scrolls of patterned bricks from the Baekje period, making seal stamps, and making Bronze Age stone swords.

The Ministry of Education and the Korea Chamber of Commerce and Industry have been implementing the ‘Education Donation Career Experience Institution Certification System’ since 2016 to discover various experience sites that provide high-quality career experience programs in local communities and to establish a quality management system for career experiences.

This year, 389 institutions nationwide and 93 institutions in the Busan, Ulsan, and Gyeongnam regions were selected. Experience institutions can be checked on the Ministry of Education’s ‘Kkumgil’ website.

Certified institutions are granted the right to use the certification mark for promotional purposes, and consulting related to program promotion for teachers and parents as well as the development and operation of career experience programs is provided.

This year, Dong-Eui University Museum was selected for the ‘2020 Museum Humanities on the Road Project’ hosted by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and organized by the Korean Museum Association. The museum has been selected and conducting the project for eight consecutive years since 2013.
