[Asia Economy Reporter Gong Byung-sun] The Korea Exchange announced on the 12th that it plans to improve the 'Listing Education' service for unlisted companies preparing to list on KOSDAQ.

This education program was prepared to support the training of personnel for promoting the listing of unlisted companies and to inform them in advance of the matters to be complied with as listed companies. Companies requesting preliminary review for KOSDAQ listing must submit a certificate of completion of this education, and the curriculum is divided into a management course and an expert course.

Last year, a total of 403 companies completed the education, an increase of 16% compared to the previous year. This was in response to the increased demand for education due to the recent rise in companies pursuing listing.

Although the program was inevitably conducted online for the past two years due to COVID-19, future education will be conducted through both face-to-face and online classes. A Korea Exchange official explained, "However, if the COVID-19 situation worsens, we will switch to an online system," adding, "We have decided to reorganize and reinforce part of the curriculum."

Those wishing to participate in the education can apply through the Korea Exchange Startup website.
