The Advanced Convergence Media Center at Kyonggi University announced on the 18th that it has signed an industry-academia cooperation agreement related to live commerce education with OnAir Commerce.
The Advanced Convergence Media Center at Kyonggi University is a specialized educational institution preparing for the Fourth Industrial Revolution era and will conduct live commerce education for 10 weeks in collaboration with OnAir Commerce, a live commerce specialist company. Over the course of 10 weeks, anyone will be able to develop the skills to operate online shopping malls and solo broadcasts, and receive basic training for product planning, sales, and customer service on their own.
As their first project, the two institutions, supported by Seodaemun-gu Office located on Kyonggi University’s Seoul campus, have started live commerce education for career-interrupted women and local residents. Although the education began on the 17th, Seodaemun-gu residents can still apply for the course as additional or waiting applicants on the Seodaemun-gu Office Lifelong Learning Portal website until the 23rd.
A Kyonggi University official stated, "This is a case where a local university, in cooperation with local government and related companies, offers live commerce education free of charge to anyone, which otherwise would require high fees at private educational institutions," adding, "It will serve as a good example of industry-academia-government collaboration projects."
