This initiative was facilitated by LLDIKTI Region 4 regarding the Internal Quality Assurance System.

It was attended by stakeholders from various educational institutions, including: 1) The Rector of UNIKOM, 2) Vice Rector I of UNIKOM, 3) Vice Rector IV of UNIKOM, 4) Director of Quality Assurance UNIKOM, 5) UNIKOM Cooperation Division, 6) The Collaboration Team, as well as 4 Rectors representing the 18 Private Universities from LLDIKTI Region I, Representatives of UNIKOM’s Faculty and Study Program Quality Assurance Teams, and the Head and Coordinators of LLDIKTI handling SPMI for Region 4. The attendees aimed to learn from the best practices of the Internal Quality Assurance System (SPMI) implemented at UNIKOM.
On this occasion, the Rector of UNIKOM, Prof. Dr. Ir. H. Eddy Soeryanto Soegoto, M.T., delivered remarks expressing UNIKOM’s pride in sharing its experiences in SPMI implementation. He emphasized the importance of cross-institutional collaboration in improving education quality. Furthermore, Prof. Eddy explained UNIKOM’s early journey and expressed gratitude that UNIKOM has become a Superior (Unggul) university moving towards a world-class status. “In its development, Alhamdulillah, at the age of 22, UNIKOM achieved the ‘Superior’ status. While the average university achieves this at 50 years old, UNIKOM did it in 22 years, thanks to our excellent teamwork. We have solid, cohesive human resources, and it is these HR capabilities that successfully made UNIKOM Superior,” said Prof. Eddy.
The event also featured remarks from the Vice Rector for Academic and Student Affairs, Prof. Dr. Hj. Umi Narimawati, Dra., S.E., M.Si., M.Pd., who highlighted the importance of benchmarking in the academic world to strengthen quality assurance systems in higher education. Additionally, the Head of LLDIKTI Region I, Prof. Drs.

The core of the event involved implementing the signed Memorandum of Agreement by conducting a benchmarking session on the Internal Quality Assurance System with UNIKOM’s Directorate of Quality Assurance. In its execution, the Quality Assurance Directorate is assisted by Faculty Quality Assurance Teams and Study Program Quality Assurance Teams. In implementing SPMI, UNIKOM utilizes the PPEPP cycle integrated with a system called e-SPMI UNIKOM (accessible at spmi.unikom.ac.id). SPMI activities are conducted periodically: weekly (such as checking Lesson Plans/RPS), monthly (inspections in the academic system), semesterly (Monitoring and Evaluation of Mid-term and Final Exams, Guidance, etc.), and annually (Internal Quality Audit, Management Review Meeting, and Follow-up Plans).
Concluding the event, all participants gathered for a photo session and exchanged souvenirs from the various universities in LLDIKTI Region I to UNIKOM as a token of the synergy established during this event. This activity is expected to serve as an initial step for other institutions to implement better quality assurance systems within their respective higher education environments.
