On June 25, Hana Bank announced that it has been selected as the operating institution for the 'K-New Deal Academy' initiated by the Ministry of Employment and Labor.
The Hana K-New Deal Financial Academy is a tailored program designed to provide free practical training in finance, developed in collaboration with current industry professionals.
The training will take place from July 14 to October 16 at Hana Bank's Daejeon headquarters. The curriculum includes understanding the finance industry and banking roles, utilizing digital finance and artificial intelligence (AI), environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles, and project practice and presentations.
Participants will also have the opportunity to visit the Hana Financial Group's new headquarters in Cheongna, engage in hands-on experiences at the Hana Global Campus, attend special lectures by current Hana Bank employees, and receive close mentoring.
Eligibility is open to unemployed youth aged 15 to 34 with an interest in finance and digital sectors, particularly those who have been inactive in the job market for an extended period. According to the National Data Agency's 'Employment Trends for May 2026,' the number of employed youth (ages 15-29) has decreased by 255,000 compared to the previous year, marking the largest drop since January 2021.
Applications will be accepted until July 4 through the Hana Financial Group website and other platforms.
A Hana Bank representative stated, "We will continue to expand programs that promote mutual growth for youth and the local community."
