The Inauguration of the PTMA Quality Assurance Association Management
On Tuesday, May 17, 2022, the Higher Education Research and Development Council (Diktilitbang) of Muhammadiyah held a socialization session on the rubric of internal quality audit instruments for PTMA. The event, which took place at the Beston Hotel Palembang, aimed to align perceptions regarding the content and use of the PTMA internal quality audit rubric guidelines, which had previously been released on December 22, 2021.
In addition to the socialization session, the event, which lasted until May 19, 2022, included the launching of the PTMA quality assurance association along with the inauguration of its management for the 2022-2024 period. One of the lecturers from UAD, Agung Kristanto, M.T., Ph.D., who also serves as the Head of External Quality Audit and Recognition Division of UAD’s Quality Assurance Body, was tasked with being the deputy chairperson for the SPMI and IS fields. With the establishment of this association, it is hoped to become a platform for communication and exchange of ideas among PTMAs regarding the implementation of internal quality assurance systems (SPMI) as well as the dynamics of regulations on external quality assurance systems (SPME). -O.S.A.D-
