Tuesday, May 21, 2024, Faculty of Cultural Sciences UGM participated in a webinar on the Kick-Off of Micro Credential Development for University Leaders through UGM Online organized by the Directorate of Academic Studies and Innovation, Universitas Gadjah Mada. This activity aims to introduce the term Micro Credential which is a certificate or recognition given to individuals after completing a course or learning module that focuses on certain competencies or skills. In conjunction with the learning management system portal through UGM Online, to form a new educational ecosystem to support continuing education and lifelong learning for students and alumni by obtaining online learning resources. Microcredentials that are delivered through the types of online learning classes offered are usually short in duration and highly focused. They are designed to enhance certain skills or master specific competencies to the point of recognition for learning credits.

Microcredentials are divided into six different classes, namely:

• Technical Skills Class
• Professional Development Class
• Soft Skills Class
• Compliance and Regulatory Class
• Entrepreneurship Class
• Industry Specific Classes

Each class is designed with a specific focus to develop different skills. This specific skill development is able to support each individual to deepen their knowledge and insight in a specific focus for career advancement and improve individual competence. Module or course development of micro credentialing modules is developed from courses that are then packaged and reproduced according to the principles of micro credentialing. Lecturers can develop micro credential modules from their expertise, which has strategic value in the community/market to be accessed widely and massively. The module may be different from the material in the course and what is taught to students.

In order to provide greater insight and knowledge about Cultural Heritage in the Sleman Regency area, especially for the younger generation, on May 21, 2024 a visit to the Cultural Heritage object was held, namely the Wisma Kaliurang Building, Wisma Merapi Indah I Building and Sri Widodo Joglo Building. The participants of this activity were high school students in the Sleman Regency area totaling 15 people accompanied by several teachers. The purpose of this activity is to introduce cultural heritage from the type of building, especially from the aspect of the important value contained in it. The important value of cultural heritage is related to the importance of history, the importance of education, the importance of science, the importance of culture and the importance of strengthening national identity.

The buildings of Wisma Kaliurang, Wisma Merapi, and Joglo Sri Widodo have historical significance as buildings used in the historical momentum of the Indonesian independence struggle. The Wisma Kaliurang building was used as the location of the KTN (Three State Commission) meeting on January 13, 1948 in order to obtain recognition of the sovereignty of the Republic of Indonesia from the Dutch colonial occupation. The meeting was attended by representatives from three countries, namely Australia, America and Belgium. While from Indonesia, there were a number of national figures such as Soekarno, Mohammad Hatta, General Sudirman, Sri Sultan Hamengkubuwono IX, Sutan Sjahrir and others. An important result of this meeting was the minutes decision which stated that the Republic of Indonesia retained full power over the area it controlled.

This KTN meeting actually followed up on the Renville Agreement, which was disrupted by the Second Dutch Military Aggression which seized Yogyakarta as the capital of the Republic of Indonesia at that time. Wisma Merapi Indah I, located not far from Wisma Kaliurang, is a building that was once used as a place to stay by national figures when attending the KTN meeting, along with the Ngeksigondo Pesanggrahan complex which is also located not far from Wisma Kaliurang.

It is hoped that with this activity, the cultivation of cultural heritage preservation values among the younger generation, especially students in the Sleman Regency area, can provide provisions in the future for the community to be able to participate more in preserving heritage in the form of tangible cultural heritage that has noble values that must be preserved.
