This marks the beginning of a strategic partnership to implement digital skills training and certification via ICDL programmes, and further strengthens UII’s role as a leading institution for future-ready skills development in Indonesia.
The Agreement was signed by Dr. R. Teduh Dirgahayu, S.T., M.Sc. (Head of Informatics Department, Faculty of Industrial Technology, UII) as well as Ms. Natasa Tjahjana S. (Director, SEI), and witnessed by Mr. Rahadian Kurniawan, S.Kom., M.Kom. (Director, IT Centrum, UII).

This collaboration between UII and SEI is also expected to equip UII faculty members, the wider community in Yogyakarta, as well as UII’s extensive network of partner institutions across Indonesia, with the global digital skills standards which ICDL are aligned to. This will enable all beneficiaries of ICDL programmes to be prepared for success towards the 2045 Golden Indonesia Vision.
