The Indonesian Institute of the Arts Denpasar (ISI Denpasar) is currently preparing for International Accreditation for four (4) study programs. In efforts to refine these preparations, ISI Denpasar conducted a Workshop Simulation for International Accreditation Visitation at the Nata Widya Sabha Building, 2nd floor of the ISI Denpasar Rectorate, from January 28 to 31, 2024.
The workshop themed “Bali Tantu Bhuwana” (Achieving Outstanding Accreditation) featured two academics from Yogyakarta State University as speakers. They are Dyah Setyowati Ciptaningrum, S.Pd., M.Ed., Ed.D., and Dr. Phil. Nurhening Yunarti, S.Pd., M.T. UNY was chosen as the contributor because it already has internationally accredited programs. AQAS is one of the accreditation agencies selected by UNY to assess several study programs, including English Language Bachelor’s, English Language Education Master’s, and Applied Linguistics Master’s.

The workshop was opened by the Vice Rector for Planning and Cooperation, Prof. Dr. I Komang Sudirga. Prof. Sudirga stated that the workshop was held in preparation for the International Accreditation field visits to four (4) Study Programs (Prodi) within the Indonesian Institute of the Arts (ISI) Denpasar. The concerned programs are the Karawitan Bachelor’s Program, Fine Arts Bachelor’s Program, Applied Fashion Design Bachelor’s Program, and Arts Doctoral Program. The International Accreditation Visitation will be conducted in March 2024 by AQAS (Agency for Quality Assurance through Accreditation of Study Programs), a higher education quality assurance agency in Germany.
“Through this workshop, we hope that the speakers can provide guidance and insights into the accreditation process conducted by AQAS. So, when the assessors come to our campus, our preparations will be thorough,” hoped Prof. Komang Sudirga.
