Abstract

This study aims to determine the readiness and the challenges of human resources in implementing the MBKM program, using a qualitative descriptive method as a guide in this research process. This study involved several lecturers, teachers participants being observed, filling out questionnaires, and interviewing for data collection needs. It was done in the Education Institution in Kotamobagu, one of the regencies in the North of Sulawesi. The data findings indicate that several lecturers and teachers are ready to implement the MBKM program for several reasons. One of them is an independent system or freedom for students and lecturers or teachers to study and pursue experience in different disciplines and even other universities or schools, likewise with lecturers who can share knowledge in various departments. The problems and challenges found only occur at the beginning of learning, but it provides significant benefits at the end of education.
