CORPORATE UNIVERSITY AS AN INTEGRATIVE HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY FOR DISTANCE EDUCATION AS PUBLIC ORGANISATION

Abstract

The Open University is a distance university with more than 400,000 students spread throughout Indonesia and 52 cities in 49 countries. The number of Universitas Terbuka employees is 2,538 people and they are spread over 39 regional offices. Currently, UT requires a human resource development system that can reach all of UT's human resources, and HR development activities can be carried out effectively and its success can be easily measured. To meet these needs, the choice is to form a corporate university. The corporate university is a learning method based on increasing employee capabilities to improve organizational performance to increase organizational growth to be more productive, efficient, and optimal. The development step is carried out through two stages, namely corporate university assessment and corporate university Strategy Masterplan development. In this paper, the components and steps for implementing the corporate university assessment and feature corporate university construction will be presented. Corporate university assessment is carried out through self-assessment of the enterprise learning system at UT and compiling the results of a strategic roadmap based on the results of the study. The measurement of the enterprise learning system includes an assessment of the inputs consisting of management commitment, learning function, facilities, learning solutions, learning technologists, learners, and learning culture. While the assessment of the process is carried out by assessing the UT learning value chain. Output is measured by learning performance indicators. Meanwhile, the corporate university features consist of the main components of learning strategy governance, learning focus, learning solution architecture, and learning solutions delivery system. UT, which operates remotely, has strong industrial characteristics, so an integrated and programmed HR development system is needed to produce output as expected and measurable.
