Students at the Faculty of Law, Wijaya Putra University (FH UWP) continue to show high commitment to deepening their legal knowledge. This time, they are collaborating with the Leadership Council of the Indonesian Advocates Association (DPC PERADI) Gresik Branch through the 2023 Class II Special Education for the Advocate Profession (PKPA).

This program runs from Saturday, September 28 2024 to Sunday, October 13 2024, and is an opportunity to hone the legal skills of UWP FH students. The culmination of this series of events was held at the closing of PKPA on Saturday (13/10) at the Taufiqurrahman Law Laboratory, Building E, UWP Benowo Campus. This event was attended by the Dean of FH UWP along with the DPC PERADI Gresik staff.

In his speech, the Chairman of DPC PERADI Gresik, Kukuh Pramono Budi, S.H., M.H., emphasized the importance of maintaining the dignity and authority of the advocate profession. “An advocate must always maintain integrity and professionalism in carrying out his duties. "That's what will differentiate you in this challenging profession," said Kukuh enthusiastically.

What makes this year's PKPA even more interesting is the hybrid format implemented, combining face-to-face and online learning. Chair of the PKPA Committee, Muhamad Chaidar, S.H., M.H., explained that FH UWP utilizes e-court law laboratory facilities to support this learning model.

"We are trying to optimize e-court law laboratory facilities to support hybrid learning in PKPA this year," explained Chaidar, highlighting innovation in organizing the event.

Meanwhile, the Dean of FH UWP, Dr. Andy Usmina Wijaya, S.H., M.H., said that the PKPA program is an important part of the big vision of FH UWP which carries the motto "school of litigators." According to him, this program complements legal education at FH UWP, which also supports the "Legalpreneur" concept in accordance with the university's vision as a Sociopreneur-based Entrepreneurial University.

"This PKPA not only trains students' legal skills, but also prepares them to become advocates with an entrepreneurial spirit. "The success of this year's hybrid implementation has made us plan to re-adopt this model in next year's PKPA," concluded Andy.
