BEM FBS Holds Soft Skills Training

Remembering how important soft skills are for students who will be useful in the future when entering the world of work, the Student Executive Board of the Faculty of Languages ??and Arts (BEM, FBS) Undiksha, held soft skills training, on Wednesday 28 April 2021.

According to the Dean of FBS Prof, Dr. I Made Sutama, M.Pd., knowledge gained through college is a hard skill. And outside that there are very spacious study rooms. This is a space where students forge soft skills. “Soft skills are more important than hard skills.” That’s what the Dean emphasized.

The Dean invited all FBS students who took part in this soft skills training to be proud of Undiksha. Currently Undiksha, under the leadership of the Chancellor, Prof. Dr. I Nyoman Jampel, M.Pd., Undiksha went very fast. However, the Dean still reminded me that hard work must still be developed in the academic community.

“Soft skills relate to some skills, including the ability to think critically, the ability to communicate well, leadership, the ability to analyze information, adapt quickly, have high creativity, have curiosity, the ability to collaborate, the ability to manage time, high skills. in public speaking, and networking skills,” explained Sutama.

The resource person invited to this activity was PKM Corner, a student organization developed by FIB (Faculty of Cultural Sciences) Gadjah Mada University, which operates in the field of PKM or student creativity programs.

Indeed, many individual students have developed their soft skills independently and naturally in everyday life. This usually applies to the students’ early days long before they were on campus.

These types of students usually have a lot of soft skills practice in their daily lives. They grow up as students who have double dimensions of life: hard skills and soft skills.

Meanwhile, there are still many students who have a single dimension. This group views the process of becoming a student and life on campus as just a matter of knowledge or hard skills. They prioritize formal quantitative values. Various activities that hone and develop soft skills are not considered important. The time available is only used for theoretical knowledge lectures.

So the development of soft skills for the hard skill category of students does not occur. For this reason, institutionalizing various soft skills training is very urgent. This is what prompted BEM FBS Undiksha to move institutionally to conduct soft skills training, which specifically hones skills in PKM competencies. This is reasonable considering that PKM activities are very open to collaboration in developing various types of skills accumulated in soft skills
