\u201cStudents are not only required to possess theoretical knowledge, but also to apply it in real-life situations and communicate their ideas and perspectives professionally,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The SMKIM 2026 program also highlights the importance of collaboration between knowledge, practical application, and real action in supporting the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). By encouraging students to not only understand theoretical concepts but also implement them through hands-on experience and meaningful contributions during their internships, the program fosters a holistic approach to career development. This synergy is expected to shape graduates who are not only industry-ready but also socially responsible and capable of contributing to sustainable development.<\/span><\/p>\n

Throughout the event, participants gained valuable insights, ranging from the development of soft skills such as interpersonal communication and teamwork, to strategies for building personal branding and navigating workplace challenges.

Through the implementation of SMKIM 2026, Fikom Untar hopes that students can optimize their internship experiences as a first step toward building sustainable careers.
