Competency Tests for KDKMP and KNMP Managers Have Begun: Full Schedule Until Announcement

The recruitment of managers for Kopdes Merah Putih (Koperasi Desa/Kelurahan Merah Putih/KDKMP) and Koperasi Nelayan Merah Putih (KNMP) has entered the competency testing stage, running throughout May 2026. This information is crucial for participants in the selection process, particularly to know the full schedule up to the final announcement. The competency tests are scheduled from 3 to 12 May 2026. The implementation uses a Computer Assisted Test (CAT) system spread across 72 locations throughout Indonesia. According to Zulhas, the CAT system is not new and has been widely used in various national selections. “This system is proven and does not need to be doubted,” said Coordinating Minister for Food Affairs Zulkifli Hasan during a press conference in Jakarta on Monday (4/5/2026). The additional selection is scheduled from 20 to 31 May 2026. The final results of the recruitment for Kopdes Merah Putih and KNMP managers will be announced on 7 June 2026. Participants declared to have passed will proceed to the next stage, namely basic military training as reserve components (Komcad), as well as managerial and field competency training.
