Laskar Vokasi Orientation Program
A significant change in this year’s Laskar Vokasi is the timing of the papermob configuration session. Unlike previous years, where it was held at the end, this year it was moved to the beginning of the event to serve as an opening ceremony. This allowed faculty leaders to witness the papermob configuration.
Despite the overall success of the three-day event, there were some challenges encountered, especially during the preparation for the papermob configuration. Akmal Aisy, the field coordinator, explained that the time allocated for the papermob setup was not sufficient. The initial setup was delayed due to the venue not being cleared of chairs, which required extra time for the committee to clean up and prepare the area for the papermob.
