    JAKARTA, INDONESIA, July 03, 2016 /24-7PressRelease/ -- University is really in charge of learning process in order to create qualified and skillful graduates. Owing to its significant role, education development as one of main priorities in national development agenda covers many aspects of life such as: social, economics, politics, and cultures.

An important aspect of the quality of University is indicated by Accreditation. Accreditation is an official assessment conducted by a government institution in Indonesia, namely Badan Akreditasi Nasional, to monitor and to evaluate the quality of education in all study programs at University. The result of accreditation is marked with level A, B, C and D (unaccredited) and its term is 5 years. Mr. Arief Kusuma as the Rector of Esa Unggul University said, "To achieve that, it needs strong commitment of all parties in campus including curriculum, facilities, learning process, graduates, and the implementation of Tridarma Perguruan Tinggi". Besides that, EUU has achieved ISO 9001:2008 / IWA-2, he added.

Seven standardized points on accreditation
1. Vision, mission, goal and objective, and achievement strategy.
2. Leadership, management system and quality assurance from Badan Akreditasi Nasional.
3. University students and graduates, focusing on questionnaires filled by graduates, GPA and students' recruitment.
4. Human Resources such as: ratio, qualification and development of lecturers.
5. Curriculum, learning process, and academic atmosphere.
6. Funding, facilities, and information system.
7. Research papers (journals and any other scientific writings), society devotion, and cooperation.

Corresponding with accreditation, there are seven study programs at Esa Unggul University which have "A" level. They are: 1) Management, 2) Accounting, 3) Product Design, 4) Medical Record Management, 5) Information Technology, 6) Communication, and 7) Law.

Moreover, Magister of Management, Magister of Accounting, Magister of Public Administration and Magister of Law are also having "B" accreditation. All these are intended to improve the quality of learning process. Therefore, it is clear that a new university student must consider the credibility of a university before making the final choice.
