The Chairman of the Sudi PSIK-FK Unhas Program and several other nursing lecturers, attended the XV AIPNI Annual Member Meeting (RTA) in Belitung. RTA is an annual activity organized by the Central Executive Board of AIPNI (Association of Indonesian Educational Institutions) which aims to discuss efforts in increasing the capacity of all educational institutions in governance and improving the quality of graduates and achievement of accreditation. This year the RTA will be held in Belitung City for 4 days (13-16 October 2016). Bangka-Belitung Province is included in Regional 4 of the 12 existing regions.
This RTA was attended by 213 Institutions, 2017 Members of AIPNI Ners Educational Institutions from all over Indonesia and 6 Non-Member Institutions. Continuous Quality Improvement in Nursing Education toward Quality in Nursing Care and Services in the Era of Asean Economic Community is the theme that has been carried out this year. So to achieve the objectives of the theme, a number of Stake holders were invited to give input a.l: General Chairperson of PP PPNI, Head of PPSDM of the Indonesian Ministry of Health, BNP2TKI Representative, and PERSI Representative.
In addition to International Seminar activities (Speakers from various foreign countries al: Taiwan, Australia), Session of Commissions, Panel Discussions, one of the interesting activities of the RTA is the awarding of award certificates for graduates who have the highest number in the Competency Test (UKOM ) National Ners. This year 3 PSIK FK Unhas students won 1-2-3 for the highest UKOM score in the Regional 12 region (Sulawesi Region). The winners of the highest Ukom Ners scores are:
Rank I: Rosdiana with a value of 74.4
Rank II: Sri Handayani, with a value of 70.6, and
Rank III: Wahyuni, score 70
In the future, it is expected that the UKOM graduation rate will increase and more and more Unhas PSIK students will get the highest score, both on a regional scale XII and national scale.
Another important result also from the implementation of the RTA this time was the launch of the 2015 Ners Indonesia Core Education Curriculum whose formulation was based on the 2012 KKNI and 2015 SNPT and other global competencies. The curriculum is expected to begin to be applied in the 2017-2018 school year in all S1 nursing education institutions and become a reference or standard for the development of Ners education in Indonesia.
