French Ambassador’s visit

This month, we had an opportunity to conduct a second test on the digital learning innovation based on augmented reality application in another SMK in Bandung! In this activity, teachers actively participated and helped the students to understand more about learning in the fields of electricity, automation and renewable energy. During the experiment, we got a very positive response not only from the students but from the teachers as well. The teachers were amazed of this development of technology, especially in augmented reality. This learning innovation could enhance students’ motivation and facilitate students to practice learning wherever and whenever. Many thanks to all of teachers and students from SMK Negeri 4 Bandung for the management and the warm welcome. We are very delighted to work with Schneider Electric France and SENAR to drive innovation in education. We can’t wait to do another test at other schools!

On August, Schneider Electric Cikarang Plant held a workshop on “Curriculum Adaptation and Industrial Work Culture for Student Competency Improvement” at SMKN 1 Cikarang Selatan, one of CoE’s SMK in automation field. This workshop aims to harmonize approaches to work-based learning in the vocational school. Through this workshop, the students will be able to know the work environnement and some skills needed in industry. This type of initiative is highly complementary to our CoE EARE training initiatives. CoE EARE would like to appreciate your help in facilitating this insightful workshop Rudy GRANET, Juni Wulandari, siti nurmazidah, Heru Syahirul Alim, sumarno lv & Maringan Cipto Budi Handoyo

Centre of Excellence for Electricity, Automation and Renewable Energy is gaining recognition. The British Chambers of Commerce Indonesia was interested in visiting the CoE EARE facilities to explore energy access opportunities in Indonesia. However, for one reason or another, this visit was changed to virtual visit via Zoom. On 15 July 2022, CoE EARE had the opportunity to present the CoE Academy Project and the EcoStruxure XR Operator Advisor project for Renewable Energy equipment to delegates from BritCham Indonesia, Innovate UK, and several British companies engaged in the energy sector, such as Inclusive Energy, Blockchain & Climate Institute, CARNOT, dpSun, Ronsek Limited, ACELERON, Lind Electronics and STRAW INNOVATIONS LTD. We look forward to the delegates directly visiting CoE facilities in BBPPMPV BMTI Kemdikbud and building future collaborations.
