The first speaker, Darius Rupa, S.Pd. M.Si. delivered a material entitled “Want Free Tuition? Apply Commitment”. Darius begins the material by stating his life goals.

“I made living targets in the form of cells. I liken my life to the nucleus. My life must have capacity. The foundation is strong commitment and prayer. To achieve the target, there must be hard work, time control, moving forward, and confidence to achieve the desired result,” said Darius.

Darius conveyed various types of scholarships that general lecture participants could try.

“If you already have a target to go to college, then the next step is to look for scholarships. Starting from the requirements, the opening date of the scholarship, and other important things.” Darius said.

The second speaker, Yasir Sidiq, S.Pd., M.Sc. delivered the material with the topic “Study Abroad Experiences and Organizational Skill”. Yasir started the discussion with information on study opportunities in Japan.

In the next material, Yasir shared his personal academic and organizational experiences while studying in Japan.
