Story of Being a Certified Lecturer (SERDOS)

Assalamu Alaikum Wr. Wb.

Thanks God It’s Friday.

Well…

In this post, I’d like to share my very delightful feeling.

It’s ‘bout Certified Lecturer which known as SERDOS.

Step by step of the process I had got trough. Starting from getting Jafung (Jabatan Fungsional), waiting for Inpassing release, till seeing my name on the list of D4 in which I could participate in the first session of SERDOS (Sertifikasi Dosen) 2018. And, the most important thing to be done before filling perceptional data, we had to have certificate in English Proficiency (TOEP) and Basic Competence (TKDA HIMPSI) by PLTI (Pusat Layanan Tes Indonesia). All praises due to Allah, I did it well enough in spite of nothing much preparation.

I don’t have any intention to show off, just proud of myself. Hmm…sorry for my so full of myself hehe

During D4 process, I was as participant of SERDOS had to fill in perceptional data. Besides, there’s also perceptional data that should be filled in by one of my superordinate, three colleagues and five students who had known me deeply. In this case, I got problems in finding availability colleagues due to there’s so many participants in my workplace. Having the same assessor for our perceptional data filling wasn’t allowed. At the end, by Bismillah, we kept verified our data even we had to use one colleague for two participants.

Alhamdulillah, we’re passed and coming to the next step. It’s D5 in which we’re expected to describe ourselves during being a lecturer. Here, we needed to retell all of our contribution concerned three pillars of higher education in educational, research, and society service field. Those three pillars had to be elaborated in 24 points which is also including institution management and improvement of students’ activities quality.

And, can you imagine? I did it in all one night long. It’s such amazing thing that I had done. I wrote it out everything that I’ve done since being lecturer genuinely. In various of sit positions I kept typing ‘till my back felt like wanted to be broken up.

After finishing submitting self-description data, we’re coming to next process which is hunting dean’s and rector’s signature. The last thing to do in D5 step is uploading the validation letter which had already signed up by dean and rector of the university.

In the first week of May, final result of SERDOS 2018 session I released. I was passed with a note "DYS was still young, relatively active, but have to keep work and learn many things". Nonetheless, I was sooo happy. At the time, there’s only one thing came to my mind, of course, "When will SERDOS pay day come up?" hehe

In the middle of November, I got the hard copy of my certificate from State University of Yogyakarta, which was sent to LLDIKTI IX.

The last step of SERDOS was submitting all requirements needed in terms of payment. Such as BKD (Beban Kerja Dosen) report in two semesters, opening BNI Bank Account, copy of NPWP and ID Card, et cetera. And, it was done at the end of 2018 while I was in the middle of civil servant recruitment process, too.

Coming to the next year, 2019. It’s SERDOS starting payment year for those whom has been passed in 2018, all session. Month by month, we signed an attendance list while waiting. And, a problem came at the end of March in which some of my colleagues including me, lacked of one requirement payment data. We forgot to submit our certificate. Certainly, that’s the very important one. In a hour, with Bu Sri Hastati, we tried to make it done by submitting directly in LLDIKTI (eks. Kopertis) Wil. IX Sulawesi Selatan.  

Alhamdulillah…

Step by step had been got through with all of ups and downs day.

Today...

All of my extra efforts have been paid off.

Thanks GOD!

It’s really a very delightful Friday ever.

It’s JUM’AT BERKAH

PS:

Behind my happiness today, I’m also feeling sad. I’m afraid of those amounts of money which has paid to me, be taken back. Cause, I heard that if we’re passing civil servant recruitment, we’re not supposed to get it. And, I’m one of them.

Nevertheless,

I’m happy and I’m sure whatever will happen to me later, it’s a divine decree or GOD’s will.

I believe that if it means to be mine, it will be then.

Today, I just need to be grateful and let Allah do the rest, for my best.
