Dr. Muchlas, M.T., in his speech emphasized that UAD is strongly committed to supporting iHiLead programs. This workshop was also marked as the second time UAD hosted the iHiLead program. Muchlas explained that there are not many leadership programs like iHiLead. “So this program will be an alternative that is able to accommodate the capacity building of higher education leaders,” he said.
On the second day, 40 participants from the consortium discussed and reported the impact of the LMDP training. On the third day, all participants conducted a simulation using the iHiLead lab tool in sending modules and developing modules. On the last day, participants planned to implement iHiLead LMDP.
