YOGYAKARTA — Poltekkes Kemenkes Yogyakarta welcomed a benchmarking delegation from Poltekkes Kemenkes Pontianak on Thursday, October 29, 2026. Held at the Nawasena Room, Directorate of Poltekkes Kemenkes Yogyakarta, the visit provided an opportunity for institutional knowledge exchange and peer learning to strengthen governance in health higher education.

The benchmarking session focused on several strategic areas of institutional management, including financial governance and the management of state-owned assets, academic and learning management, as well as quality assurance, research, and community service.

Other topics included the management of international classes and alumni empowerment, human resource development, and the governance of Public Service Agencies (BLU) and supporting units. These areas play an important role in supporting the delivery of high-quality, effective, and sustainable health higher education.

 

Through this visit, both institutions had a platform to exchange information on policies, operational mechanisms, and institutional management practices related to the topics under discussion. The exchange of experiences was expected to offer new perspectives for identifying development opportunities and strengthening governance within each institution.

Benchmarking also serves as an approach to organizational learning by enabling institutions to explore the practices and experiences of their peers. By addressing academic, administrative, quality assurance, human resource development, and supporting services, the activity was intended to contribute to broader institutional capacity building.

Poltekkes Kemenkes Yogyakarta continues to strengthen its institutional governance through effective work systems, improved service quality, and enhanced educational standards and implementation of the three pillars of higher education: education, research, and community service.

The benchmarking visit represents an opportunity to foster institutional collaboration and expand knowledge-sharing among higher education institutions dedicated to developing a qualified health workforce.
