Chemonics seeks ASEAN university network (AUN) quality assurance
specialists for the ongoing USAID Higher Education Leadership and
Management (HELM) project in Indonesia. The Government of Indonesia has
made important strides in higher education with burgeoning enrollment,
increased education attainment, internationally competitive
staff/student ratios, increased percentage of teaching staff with
advanced degrees, and enhanced local research capacities. However, the
demand for highly skilled human resources and new knowledge is
accelerating, and Indonesian higher education institutions lack the
quality needed to meet the demands of national development.
The five-year program aims to strengthen the capacity of higher education institutions to perform effectively in general administration and leadership, financial management, quality assurance, and collaboration with external stakeholders. These core management areas were selected after thorough consultation with the Directorate General for Higher Education (DIKTI) at the Ministry of National Education (MONE). These core areas are critical to enabling institutions to adopt and deliver quality teaching, research, and service. Absent such capacity strengthening, it is difficult to see how the targeted higher education institutions will sustain improvements in how well they prepare students for success in learning and work. We are looking for individuals who have a passion for making a difference in the lives of people around the world.
Responsibilities include:
