During the workshop, participants received an introduction to the urgency of accreditation, socialization of assessment instruments, explanations regarding the structure of accreditation documents, and group discussions concerning data requirements and data sources. In addition, the team formulated a work timeline and cross-sector coordination mechanisms to ensure that the document preparation process would proceed effectively and systematically. Several lecturers and academic staff involved in the activity included Dr. Rama Kertamukti, Dr. Yani Tri Wijayanti, and Dr. Diah Ajeng Purwani. The event was also supported by other team members who played strategic roles in academic quality enhancement and accreditation document preparation, including Ahmad Zuhri, Ummu S.
