PT Wijaya Karya (Persero) Tbk (WIKA), through Wikasatrian, has\nentered into a strategic cooperation with the Faculty of Psychology at\nDiponegoro University (UNDIP) to develop Indonesian human resources\nthrough a leadership approach based on Nusantara local wisdom. The\ncollaboration is underpinned by a shared commitment to developing\neducation, research and community service in line with the needs of\nindustry and academia.<\/p>\n
The cooperation arose from a series of visits and discussions between\nWikasatrian and UNDIP\u2019s Faculty of Psychology. Through these meetings,\nboth parties found a common vision in developing Eastern (Indigenous)\nPsychology and Culture, Nusantara Leadership, and the concept of\nKepamongan as an authentically Indonesian learning model introduced by\nKi Hadjar Dewantara more than a century ago.<\/p>\n
Through the signing of a Cooperation Agreement, WIKA and UNDIP\u2019s\nFaculty of Psychology committed to strengthening the implementation of\nthe Three Pillars of Higher Education \u2014 education, research and\ncommunity service \u2014 whilst developing the Nusantara Leadership and\nKepamongan programmes through an agreed division of roles and\nresponsibilities.<\/p>\n
The cooperation is realised through the Asta Mandala concept, which\nencompasses eight strategic areas. These include teaching activities,\neducation and training, research, community service, development of the\nNusantara Leadership Training Programme (DIPOSATRIAN), development of\nNusantara Kepamongan competencies towards BNSP certification, the\nproposed establishment of a Competency Test Centre (TUK), and other\nforms of cooperation agreed by both parties.<\/p>\n
WIKA\u2019s Corporate Secretary, Ngatemin, said the collaboration is a\nstrategic step towards strengthening Indonesian leadership development\nrooted in the noble values of the Nusantara.<\/p>\n

In the near term, both parties will prioritise the implementation of\nthe Satria Programme for lecturers at UNDIP\u2019s Faculty of Psychology. The\nprogramme aims to provide direct experience of Wikasatrian\u2019s learning\nmethods through a Training of Trainers (ToT) scheme, before it is\nsubsequently run independently by the Faculty of Psychology.<\/p>\n
In addition, the Faculty of Psychology will recommend Wikasatrian\nprogrammes to UNDIP\u2019s Psychological Services network (JAPSI).<\/p>\n
