Abstract

Resulting from the competition between private colleges in attracting student interest, many attempts have been made to improve the quality of universities by building professional competencies of lecturers. Highly competent lecturers will be able to produce reliable and capable student graduates. The purpose of this study is to determine a strategy for the professional development of lecturers, including policies and methods for implementing the professional conduct of lecturers' duties following the tri dharma of higher education. This case study was conducted at private colleges. Research findings indicate that planning of the lecturer's professional development programs is in accordance with the college's strategic plan and with government policies. Pedagogical, professional, personal and social skills can be improved by implementing the program with further study at a higher level in the country or abroad, as well as through participating in activities, conducting research and engaging in community service. Collaboration with other agencies and organisations will also encourage lecturers to be more innovative and creative in developing competencies individually and organically through advancing shelter institutions. © 2020 Primrose Hall Publishing Group.
