Once designated as a KSI, KSIF offers various kinds of support required for Korean language and Korean culture education including budget, teachers, etc.
KSIF has announced, ‘Information on applications for new KSI for the year 2024’ and started to receive applications on its website (https://www.ksif.or.kr) from November 30.

The selection process includes ▲ application screening, ▲ onsite due diligence and ▲ final evaluation. The results of the new KSI designations are to be announced around June next year after undergoing the evaluation at each and every stage by the designated Screening Committee, which consists of experts from each field, including Korean language education and Korean culture, overseas areas, etc.
You can check more information, including the process and requirements regarding application for new KSI designation, under ‘Submission for New KSI Applications for the Year 2024’ in Notices on KSIF’s website. KSIF also held a ‘New KSI Information Session’ in Seoul and Daejeon, for institutions that want to operate a new KSI, to enhance their understanding of the project to designate new KSI and answer questions about how to prepare the application form, etc.

The information session will include an explanation and overview of how to apply, and what to prepare for the project to designate new KSI in 2024 and introduction of KSI business and Q&A.
KSIF President Lee Hai-young said, “With the Korean-language learning craze continuing all over the world, there are still 108 countries that don’t operate a KSI even though there is a demand for Korean education. I’m looking forward to support from a lot of institutions interested so that KSIs can be operated more widely in 193 countries around the world.”
