TCMA 2020 ANNUAL REPORT

TRAINING We organized training programs under two categories in 2020 as free and paid programs: • Licensing exam preparation programs and professional development training programs were paid training, whereas • Monthly seminars/webinars were under the free programs category. Seminars for our members and online free professional development webinars were organized to contribute to the growth of the capital markets and to the development of employees. In addition, seminars and online informative webinars were held addressing university students to heighten awareness of the sector and help fulfill the need for qualified employees. Licensing Exam Preparation Programs The Capital Markets Licensing Registration and Training Agency (CMLTA) held the year’s first class-based exam on 11-12 July 2020. The exam scheduled for 19-20 December, on the other hand, was postponed due to pandemic-related restrictions. In 2020, we carried on with our comprehensive training programs, held in physical and online formats, to build on the competencies of market professionals. 52 TCMA 2020 ANNUAL REPORT
