According to him, this program was initiated in order to raise the dignity of teachers so it needs to be implemented as well as possible. Statistically, there are so many teachers who have not been certified and a new scheme has been created to accelerate and hopefully simplify the certification process.

FKIP ULM as an LPTK was asked to prepare an Elective MK and it was agreed that the MK was a Wetland Learning Innovation that was in accordance with the characteristics of South Kalimantan. According to Hidayah, the material presented today is an initial understanding, then there will be more intensive workshops for teaching lecturers and student teachers related to Elective MK at LPTK FKIP ULM.
