Second Week of Indonesian SMK Teacher Training in France

Pada tanggal 3 November 2021, Bapak Olivier Chambard selaku duta besar Perancis untuk Indonesia mengunjungi tempat kami di Kampus BBPPMPV BMTI Jl. Pesantren KM. 2, Cibabat, Cimahi Utara. Kunjungan ini bertujuan untuk melihat pelatihan-pelatihan yang diadakan oleh Center of Excellence for Electricity, Automation and Renewable Energy.

The Centre of Excellence for Electricity, Automation and Renewable Energy continues to build partnerships with universities in Indonesia. After signing an agreement with Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB) for future actions, we had the honour to meet with Ms. Sri Rijati Wardiani, Head of the French Department of Universitas Padjadjaran, on 18 October. During this meeting, we discussed possible collaborative actions such as internships at CoE EARE with the Kampus Merdeka programme. Kampus Merdeka is part of the Merdeka Belajar policy of the Kementerian Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan (Ministry of Education and Culture Republic of Indonesia), which offers students the opportunity to hone their skills according to their talents and interests by immersing themselves directly into the world of work to prepare for their future careers. Based on this discussion, we plan to sign an agreement to legalise our partnership. Again, the promise of a great collaboration!
