This achievement is a testament to the dedication, professionalism, and commitment of the USU Faculty of Pharmacy lecturers in improving the quality of higher education and teaching in the field of pharmacy.
The Lecturer Certification (Serdos) is a national program organized by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology (Kemendikbudristek) to assess lecturers’ professional competencies in carrying out the Tri Dharma of Higher Education: education, research, and community service. The success of the four Faculty of Pharmacy lecturers in the 2025 Batch 1 Certification indicates that they have met all academic, pedagogical, social, and professional criteria required in the certification process.
These four lecturers are active educators at the USU Faculty of Pharmacy, who have made significant contributions to education, research, and community service. Support from the faculty leadership, academic team, and USU’s human resources unit continues to encourage and facilitate lecturers to participate in the certification process sustainably.
The certification process was conducted online through the National Lecturer Certification System (Serdos) managed by the Directorate of Human Resources, Directorate General of Higher Education, Research, and Technology. All stages — from portfolio assessment, administrative validation, to academic eligibility testing — were carried out in an integrated and transparent manner.
The four lecturers were officially declared as having passed the 2025 Batch 1 Certification after a thorough evaluation conducted during the first semester of the 2025 academic year. The official results were announced by Kemendikbudristek at the end of October 2025.
This accomplishment not only marks a personal achievement for the lecturers but also represents part of the faculty’s ongoing efforts to:
Enhance educator professionalism and accountability.
Ensure nationally and internationally standardized higher education quality.
