    Graduate School  of UNIKOM Holds Personal Branding Seminar to Encourage Students to Build Professional Reputation Early

    BANDUNG, UNIKOM – On Friday, January 30, 2026, the Graduate School of Universitas Komputer Indonesia (UNIKOM) held an inspiring academic forum entitled “Personal Branding: Elevating Your Future – Mastering Personal Branding for the Global Career”. The activity was an implementation of the Marketing Management course in the Master of Management Study Program and was conducted online via Zoom Meeting with participation from students, academics, practitioners, and the general public.

    Present on the occasion was the Vice Rector for Academic and Student Affairs of UNIKOM, Prof. Dr. Umi Narimawati, Dra., S.E., M.Si., M.Pd., who in her remarks stated that the theme of personal branding is a highly relevant and strategic program. According to her, every individual essentially wants to have a good image and reputation, so the ability to build personal branding becomes a fundamental need in the era of global competition. Prof. Umi appreciated the Dean of the Graduate School, the student committee, and the speakers who had contributed to organizing the event. “This is a very beneficial moment, especially for participants who are learning how to build and manage personal branding to support their future careers. Formal education is not only about improving academic competence but must also be accompanied by enhancing one’s professional image and reputation,” she expressed.

    Furthermore, Prof. Umi emphasized that personal branding is not only important for those who already have a big name but must actually be built starting from the university period. Students need to learn how to position themselves, recognize their strengths, and communicate their value consistently and authentically. According to her, this is also a form of support for the learning process designed by the Dean of the Graduate School in the course being taught. Finally, Prof. Umi also invited students to continue creating, improving competence, and contributing as an excellent young generation in supporting the vision of a sustainable Golden Indonesia 2045. “In the future, competencies must be even more extraordinary. Keep creating and build your reputation with integrity,” she concluded.

    Meanwhile, the Dean of the UNIKOM Graduate School, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Rahma Wahdiniwaty, Dra., M.Si., explained that this activity was part of the students’ major project for the Marketing Management course. Students not only study marketing mix theories such as product, price, place, promotion, people, process, physical evidence, and promise, but also implement them in the context of personal branding as a “self-product” that possesses value and differentiation. “Branding is an intangible asset that greatly determines success, whether in the business, professional, or academic world. The concept of branding is not only attached to products or services but also to individuals,” she asserted.

    The seminar featured Rizqi Ghassani, M.I.Kom., RFP, Director of ESM Public Speaking Center, as the main speaker who presented strategies for building personal branding through effective communication and strengthening public speaking skills and brand identity. The activity was moderated by Muhamad Fahad Alfarisi, S.I.Kom., a Master of Management student. The enthusiasm of the participants was evident from their active participation throughout the discussion sessions.

    Through this webinar, UNIKOM reaffirms its commitment to producing master’s graduates who are not only academically excellent but also capable of building a strong professional reputation, adapting to digital transformation, and being ready to compete at the global level.

This forum brought together elements of the Ministry of Women’s and Children’s Empowerment, the Ministry of Population and Family Development or National Population and Family Planning Agency (BKKBN), the West Java Government, and regional apparatus in charge of PPPA and PPKB districts and cities throughout West Java.

    The Head of DP3AKB, Dr. Siska Gerfianti, SP.DLP, MH.Kes, who is also on the organizing committee, reported that the women’s empowerment, child protection, and family development programs will only succeed when stakeholders collaborate to make it happen.

Therefore, this activity presents elements of the central government, the regional apparatus in charge of regional planning, and districts/cities. Therefore, the involvement of all sectors is important, especially the regional apparatus in provinces and districts/cities that synergize with policy makers at the central level,” said Siska.

    Furthermore, Dr. Siska detailed a dozen priority activities that will be implemented throughout 2025, which are expected to synergize with all stakeholders in West Java.

All of this can be done through collaboration between the central, provincial, and district/city governments, as well as the community.

    Veronica emphasized that family development is a long and crucial process to realize the Indonesia Emas 2045. According to her, the series of cases of violence against women and children cannot be separated from the way people think. Therefore, it is necessary to change the mindset in the family itself and this big agenda cannot be done alone, but requires collaboration of all parties. In line with the long-term agenda towards Indonesia Emas 2045, Veronica explained, her office has launched three priority programs. The three programs include Ruang Bersama Indonesia (RBI), expanding the function of Sahabat Perempuan dan Anak (SAPA) 129 services, and strengthening One Data on Women and Children.  RBI is a cross-sector collaboration initiative to address various issues of women and children, including violence, stunting, and poverty. “This program has been implemented in six pilot villages. This is in order to bottom-up, what do the community need, what do teenagers need, what do families need? That way, program planning can be done according to the needs of the community,” Veronica explained.

Second, we hope for innovation and adaptation so that each program can run according to the needs of the community. Then, no less important is the strengthening of data and evaluation, so that quality data can produce quality output. Thus, we can truly realize the Special Jabar,” she concluded.
