[Asia Economy Reporter Minyoung Cha] On the 12th (local time), Apple officially announced through its newsroom that a 'Developer Academy' program will be established in Korea.

Apple Developer Academies are currently operating in more than 10 locations including Brazil, Indonesia, and Italy. The first academy was established in Brazil in 2013, and this October, the first one in the United States will open in Detroit.

Academy students learn the basics of coding, core professional skills, design, and marketing, and graduates acquire the capabilities needed to contribute to the local business community. More than 1,500 apps created by graduates are available on the App Store, and over 160 companies have been founded. Training programs are also offered, including a 30-day basic course for beginners in app development and an intensive 10 to 12-month program for coding experts.

However, specific details about the site or establishment plans for the Apple Developer Academy in Korea have not been disclosed. It is known that several local governments in Korea are actively seeking to host the site.

Meanwhile, Apple will hold its annual event, 'Apple WWDC,' online from the 7th to the 11th of next month. This event is for developers and includes participation from Apple Developer Academy students, graduates, and developers.
