The event was led by Ryan, a speaker from BBLSDM Medan, and was facilitated by several lecturers from the TRPL Study Program. This collaboration is expected to connect with the academic needs of higher education institutions.
In his presentation, Ryan explained various strategic topics, ranging from Artificial Intelligence (AI), IT Security, Public Speaking, Design Thinking, to Digital Skills. "The material is designed to flexibly enhance students' practical skills through a micro-learning approach," he explained.
Ryan explained that mastering microskills is key for students to compete in the era of digital transformation, even though small but specific skills can have a significant impact on graduates' career readiness.
Meanwhile, the Head of the TRPL Study Program, Sidhiq Andriyanto, M.Kom., stated that this activity aims to improve students' basic skills. He hopes this training will motivate students to be more enthusiastic about seeking and developing additional skills.
