38 private universities from LLDIKTI Region XVI (Gorontalo, North Sulawesi, and Central Sulawesi) came to UNPAR on Wednesday, 20 November 2024, to conduct a benchmarking and sharing session between their universities and UNPAR. Held at the UNPAR PPAG Auditorium, this meeting was an opportunity for visiting university officials to get to know UNPAR, as well as to learn from UNPAR’s operations of partnership collaboration and quality assurance. As the Head of LLDIKTI Region XVI Munawir Sadzali Razak S.IP., M.A. said, UNPAR’s 70 years of renowned experience can be an inspiring learning opportunity for their private universities to learn from UNPAR’s overall practices.

The benchmarking began with sharing sessions from the University Secretary Sylvia Yazid Ph.D. who talked about UNPAR’s profile; continued by the Director of International Affairs, Partnership, and Alumni Reinard Primulando Ph.D. on UNPAR’s national and international partnerships with academic institutions, businesses, and industrial corporations, along with international student presence in campus; and finished by the Head of Quality Assurance Dr. Carles Sitompul who gave an explanation on the mechanisms of internal and external quality assurance that is done by UNPAR. The visiting university officials asked many questions and discussed their inquiries with UNPAR officials in an open and insightful forum.
