Based on the announcement issued by BPTN Kemdikbudristek on June 28 2024, Yoga will compete as a finalist in the Pilmapres undergraduate program along with 15 other finalists from various universities in Indonesia.
The 2024 Final Student Achievement Selection (Pilmapres) will be held offline at Gorontalo State University on 24 – 28 July 2024.
Based on the guidelines issued by the National Achievement Center and the Indonesian Talent Development Center, there are 3 (three) aspects that will be assessed in the 2024 Presidential Election Final. These three aspects are creative ideas, a portfolio of general achievements through self-description posters, and the ability to communicate in English.
Apart from that, at the Pilmapres Final there will be several programs prepared by the committee which must be followed by the finalists. Through these programs, the committee will assess the critical thinking skills, cooperation, creativity, initiative, self-confidence, leadership, concern for other participants, and communication skills of the finalists.
Pilmapres is a competition event that has been held for many years by the Ministry of Education and Culture. The Pilmapres event itself is based on the belief that students, as potential future generations and national leaders, are not only equipped with knowledge and skills, but also hard skills and soft skills.
Apart from that, through holding the Presidential Election it is also hoped that it can increase and strengthen the awareness of campus administrators to facilitate student creativity and provide awards to outstanding students.
