AI-based technology finance company PFCT announced that it will recruit participants for the '2nd PFCT AI Credit Rating Academy' from May 8th to 30th.
This academy is a program designed to discover talents interested in the convergence of artificial intelligence (AI) and financial technology and to support their growth into professionals with practical skills through field-oriented education. Participation is completely free, and those who successfully complete the program will also be provided with a six-month internship opportunity.
The training will be held offline for 5 days from July 14th to 18th at the PFCT headquarters in Seocho-gu, Seoul. Any undergraduate or graduate student who can attend all day can apply. Applications can be made through the PFCT recruitment website.
The PFCT side explained that this academy is significant in that it is the only educational program in Korea where one can learn AI-based credit rating technology in depth in a short period of time. Participants will complete a curriculum at the industry level, from the principles of credit rating model development to practical training using de-identified financial data.
The educational faculty consists of experts with extensive practical experience in the domestic and international AI and financial fields. They plan to provide professional education by participating financial technology practitioners who have carried out numerous financial institution projects and data scientists who have presented research results at international AI conferences (ICLR, KDD, etc.).
In addition to this, there will be a variety of activities to experience PFCT's startup environment during the program, such as lunch with senior modelers, 'coffee chats' where you can network with people in various fields, and Q&A sessions with the CEO.
Through this academy, PFCT plans to simultaneously promote talent development and expand the AI technology base within the industry. In fact, some of the graduates of the first academy held in January are currently working as PFCT interns and are gaining practical experience in developing AI credit rating models and risk management consulting by participating in major domestic financial institution projects.
Jaegyun Lee, CBO in charge of PFCT AIRPACK business, said, “This academy goes beyond simple education and is a practical growth platform for talents who will create the future of the financial industry together,” adding, “We look forward to active support from excellent talents who are interested in the convergence of AI and finance.”
