Universitas ‘Aisyiyah (UNISA) Yogyakarta received a grant for the 2025 Vocational Student Competency and Profession Certification Program from the Directorate General of Higher Education, Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Technology (Kemendiktisaintek) through LSP Unisa Yogyakarta.

“This grant program provides very strategic benefits for Unisa Yogyakarta and students, especially vocational students, considering that LSP Unisa has just received a license from BNSP last March,” said Head of the Professional Certification Institute (LSP) UNISA Yogyakarta, Endang Koni Suryaningsih, Thursday (19/6/2025).

Endang Koni said that for students, this program provides an opportunity to take the competency certification test for free, because all financing costs are covered by the Higher Education grant. “Thus, students have a certificate of competence that is nationally recognized by the National Professional Certification Agency (BNSP), which is an important provision for entering the world of work,” said Endang Koni.

There are 80 students receiving this grant. They come from two vocational study programs that already have certification schemes at LSP UNISA Yogyakarta (Occupational Safety and Health Officer / K3 Officer Scheme), namely the Diploma III Radiology Study Program and the Diploma IV Medical Laboratory Technology (TLM) Study Program. Participants have been selected based on their readiness and eligibility to take the competency test according to the scheme that has been prepared and authorized.

Endang Koni also said that for UNISA Yogyakarta, this grant shows the government’s trust in the readiness of UNISA Yogyakarta, especially through LSP UNISA Yogyakarta, in organizing competency tests professionally and supporting the improvement of the quality of vocational graduates.

The success of this grant is inseparable from the direct guidance of the Vice Rector I, Dr. Sulistyaningsih, SKM, M.H.Kes., who is also a member of the LSP steering board and the support and facilitation of all leaders at UNISA Yogyakarta for the existence of LSP Unisa Yogyakarta. In the future, UNISA Yogyakarta will expand the competency certification scheme for other vocational study programs at UNISA Yogyakarta so that more students can take the competency test. In addition, integrating the certification process into learning so that students are better prepared in knowledge and practice in facing competency tests.

“Then, strengthening the LSP UNISA Yogyakarta in terms of management, assessors, and facilities in order to become a professional and sustainable certification body. Mapping the needs of the world of work so that the schemes developed are in accordance with industry standards and current job demands,” said Endang Koni.

Endang Koni hopes that this grant program can be the first step in strengthening the culture of competency certification in UNISA Yogyakarta’s vocational education environment. “Students are expected to not only graduate with a diploma, but also have a certificate of competence that is proof of professionalism and work skills,” she said.

In addition, this program is proof of the government’s concrete support in strengthening vocational education, and UNISA Yogyakarta is ready to be part of the ecosystem. “In the future, it is expected that more and more vocational study programs at UNISA Yogyakarta will be involved in similar programs, so that all graduates have high competitiveness and are ready to work in the world of work,” Endang Koni concluded.

Universitas ‘Aisyiyah (UNISA) Yogyakarta has made another achievement at the national level. The campus under the ‘Aisyiyah association successfully won the award as the Muhammadiyah and ‘Aisyiyah College (PTMA) with the Third Most AIK Research and Publications. The award was presented at the Muhammadiyah Higher Education Awards 2025 organized by the Higher Education, Research and Development Council (Diktilitbang) of the Muhammadiyah Central Leadership on Friday (13/6/2025).

The 12th batch of midwifery students at Universitas ‘Aisyiyah (UNISA) Yogyakarta are not only concerned with theory. They went directly to the community through community service activities in the working area of the ‘Aisyiyah Branch Leadership (PCA) Kraton Yogyakarta. With the theme “Strengthening the Role of Midwives in Women’s Empowerment for Early Detection of Maternal and Child Health in the Community,” this activity is a clear proof of UNISA’s commitment in producing midwives who are not only medically skilled, but also socially sensitive.

This field practice activity is neatly structured, starting from the identification and analysis of health problems in the community, formulation of solutions, program planning, implementation, to evaluation and follow-up plans. The main focus is women’s empowerment, especially in the context of maternal and child health. The goal is for women to have adequate knowledge, attitudes and skills to make the right decisions for the health of themselves, their children and their families. As WHO emphasizes, empowerment is the process of increasing the capacity of individuals or groups to make choices and turn them into concrete actions.

Not only that, this activity also touches on aspects of family resilience, which is the family’s ability to face, manage, and recover from various pressures or crises. A resilient family will create a safe and supportive environment.

As a concrete manifestation, students initiated an educational agenda entitled “Build Warmth, Create Resilience.” This educational series was held in two sessions. First, on Thursday, June 12, 2025, at the Sakinah Family Consultation Bureau Forum of PCA Kraton which was attended by 28 women administrators. Second, on Friday, June 13, 2025, at TK ABA Kadipaten Kulon with 17 student guardians.

In the forum, students delivered material on the importance of communication and warmth in the family, the role of fathers and mothers as agents of family resilience, and skills to build resilient household harmony with positive parenting in children. Activities are packaged interactively, with discussions and simulations to build emotional closeness as a foundation for family resilience and prevention of early childhood mental health problems. Participants were also provided with simple screening exercises using the Child Strengths and Difficulties Assessment Questionnaire (SDQ), an early detection tool for emotional and behavioral problems in children aged 4-18 years.

PCA Kraton Chairperson, Laila Desi Ikawati, welcomed this activity. “Alhamdulillah, the material is good and in line with the education that we also run. Insha’Allah, there are new things that we have just learned in this family resilience education,” she said.

The event was also attended by the principal of TK ABA Kadipaten Kulon and UNISA Yogyakarta supervisors. Hopefully, this education will be a valuable provision for mothers and women in Kraton to build healthy, resilient and harmonious families.
