The Influence of Pre-Training Factors on Training Effectiveness Mediated by Motivation to Learn, Motivation to Transfer, and Self-Efficacy – Case Study on Non-Ministerial Government Institutions

While acknowledging the importance of training, the challenge lies in understanding and optimizing its effectiveness, especially in the context of the government institution’s ever-changing landscape and the associated budgetary considerations. It examines whether pre-training factors—organizational support, training environment, trainer quality, and training need analysis— influence training effectiveness directly or are mediated by motivation to learn, motivation to transfer, and self-efficacy in non-ministerial government institutions in Indonesia. Data were collected from 202 respondents across 19 institutions using purposive sampling and analyzed with Covariance Based-Structural Equation Modeling (CB-SEM) using Lisrel 8.80. The findings reveal that trainer quality significantly affects motivation to learn, motivation to transfer, and self-efficacy but does not directly impact training effectiveness. Instead, its influence is mediated by motivation to transfer and self-efficacy. This underscores the crucial role of trainers in enhancing training effectiveness by boosting participants' motivation and self-efficacy. The study highlights the need for organizations to invest in high-quality trainers through ongoing professional development, robust evaluation systems, and incentives to improve training outcomes and achieve organizational goals more efficiently.

Implementation Dynamics of Passport Service Policy for Dual Nationality Child Subjects in Indonesia

Abstract 
 This article is a study of the implementation of passport service policies for children with dual citizenship in Indonesia. The implementation of this policy is the implementation of Permenkumham Number 18 of 2022, one of the points of which regulates the application of passport validity periods for children with dual citizenship. Regulations regarding the validity period of passports for children with dual citizenship are a form of policy that is in direct contact with Government Regulation Number 21 of 2022, although in its application to passport services at the Immigration Office, sometimes there is still no continuity between the two regulations. This then results in an analysis of the implementation of the passport service policy for children with dual citizenship which boils down to 3 decisions, namely first, namely providing a passport with a validity period up to the age limit for choosing the nationality of the passport applicant, postponing the passport application until the passport applicant completes the process of filing his/her citizenship selection, or refusing passport application because the passport applicant cannot complete the documents verifying the validity of his or her citizenship status by the previously determined time limit. The analysis used in this research uses Public Policy theory with the concept of Open Government and Public Policy Implementation in government institutions in Indonesia. It is hoped that this research will be able to provide an overview of the implementation of passport services for children with dual citizenship and provide the best solution for implementing this policy in the future.

Determinant Factors in the Implementation of Merit System: An Overview of Indonesian Case

It is believed that implementing and realizing a merit system in managing government resources not only increases professionalism but also anticipates the occurrence of corruption. A comprehensive merit system can also encourage further positive impacts, especially on the investment climate and boosting the national economy. The enactment of the Civil Service Law is the government's step in realizing a merit system in Indonesia. However, approaching a decade of implementation, admitting the merit system still leaves some outwork and shortcomings. The strong culture of primordialism, patronage, and nepotism affects human resource management at various levels of the Indonesian government. Meanwhile, Indonesia has a noble ambition to implement a comprehensive merit system in the upcoming golden Indonesia period of 2045. This begins by determining the achievements of the merit system to produce professional ASN as a foundation by 2029. This study will further discuss what merit system principles as factors can be determined and implemented for Indonesian government institutions. Considering merit system principles such as strengthening capacity and capability, openness and impartiality, empowerment, and effective leadership is believed to encourage widespread and comprehensive implementation of the merit system. The elements of an optimal and effective merit system in the workplace will form professional employees, foster better societal conditions, and ultimately have a broader positive impact at the regional and national levels.

The implementation of a whistleblowing system as an anti-corruption initiative in Indonesian government institutions

Whistleblowing is viewed as a powerful tool to identify corruption. Apart from motivation, beha-viour, and the rights of whistleblower protection, as success factors of whistleblowing programs, current research argues that it is hard to expect the emergence of whistleblowers if channels to report wrongdoing do not exist. Hence, the purpose of this study is to explore and explain the provision of whistleblowing policy and the range of whistleblowing systems and their channels as an anti-corruption initiative in Indonesian government institutions. The research utilised content analysis from secondary data and analys-ed primary data obtained through online survey completed by government auditors working in Indonesian government institutions. Indonesia has at least 618 government institutions, whereby the researcher chose the most “valuable” sample based on a hierarchy of 104 institutions from central government and provincial level; it excludes government institutions at the district and municipal level, 44 questionnaires were returned and usable (42% response rate). The research found that from these institutions, just a few have had a policy that aligned with international best practice, some were not even backed up by a policy at all. It appears that many institutions have built a whistleblowing system for lip service only; they do not provide a comprehensive policy to protect the witness, handle the report, or guarantee an investigation. Research outcomes are expected to encourage the Indonesian government to extend whistleblowing provisions in their institutions. This study can be useful as well for government institutions to get a general idea of the common content of whistleblowing policies.

Efforts to Reform State Civil Apparatus Management in the Face of Globalization

Currently, Indonesia's institutional structure is overweight with 34 ministries, 28 non-ministerial government institutions, and around 69 non-structural institutions with overlapping authority, indicating the complexity of government fragmentation in Indonesia. Globalization will intervene more in the field of government institutional restructuring when Indonesia's institutional situation is too hierarchical, fragmented, and over-procedural. This paper aims to discuss the importance of ASN management and how the government steps to actualize public values in ASN reform. This research uses a qualitative approach, which describes the efforts to reform ASN management in the face of globalization. The data collection technique used in this research is a literature study by collecting materials from books, journals, by describing the data through several experts' opinions. This paper proposes a recommendation that institutional downsizing is a logical consequence of the fragmented condition of Indonesian government institutions, the president should dare to reorganize the power structure in order to save the cost of governance. The quality of ASN in the face of globalization should be strengthened by recruiting younger employees who understand the dynamics of technological development, and educating ASN personnel by conducting special trainings in responding to globalization as a challenge that must be faced.

Implementation of Business Process Mapping Framework for Indonesia’s Government Institutions

Government organizations today face unprecedented challenges in carrying out their vital mission and in an environment marked by shrinking budgets, strict regulations, and changing workforce status. The business process map is a diagram that shows the working relationship between organizational units that generate added value to all respective stakeholders. While there is some independent guidance available on how various tools support different aspects of business process mapping initiatives, organizations still need to determine what their specific needs are and be able to establish how information gathered on tool functionality can be evaluated against these needs. This study will explore the practices of implementation business process mapping in 10 government institutions in Indonesia using 3-dimentional framework approach. The research employed a qualitative approach with in-depth interviews, observation, and study documents were performed for collecting and analysis data. The framework was succeeding to describe a paradigm shifting to encourage people move from a silo thinking to cross function team. Finally, business process map as a foundation of organizational bureaucracy movement shows an improvement in institutional capacity to encourage administrator in operational consistency.

The relationship of internal auditors’ characteristics with external auditors’ reliance and its impact on audit efficiency: Empirical evidence from Indonesian government institutions

Previous studies have separately investigated the relationship between the internal auditors’ characteristics, the level of external auditors’ reliance, and the audit efficiency so it has not fully described how the external auditors make decisions to rely on internal audit work, which has an impact on audit efficiency. Therefore, the current study aims to fill the research gap by analyzing the relationship among the internal auditors’ characteristics, external auditors’ reliance and audit efficiency in one comprehensive research model with the institutional environment as a moderating variable in the relationship between the level of external auditors’ reliance and the audit efficiency. This study is conducted in government organizations with the consideration that the reliance of external auditors on internal audit work is one of the strategies for dealing with the limited resources faced by government external auditors in Indonesia. Surveys are conducted to collect research data. The research subjects are 164 external auditors (BPK) from 34 representative offices in Indonesia. The data are analyzed using Partial least Square-Structural Equation Modeling. The results of this study show that the level of external auditors’ reliance on internal audit work has a significant effect on audit efficiency. Furthermore, the results also show that there is a moderating effect of the institutional environment on the relationship between the level of external auditors’ reliance and audit efficiency. This study contributes to the application and development of relational coordination theory and institutional theory in accounting and auditing fields, especially in government sector audits.

Effectiveness of One-Stop Administrative Services for the Community

Administrative services that often occur are considered low quality due to lack of human resources, unclear time certainty and inadequate infrastructure, thus giving a bad assessment from the community. This is the background behind the formation of the Minister of Home Affairs Regulation No. 24 of 2006 regarding PTSP (One Stop Integrated Implementation Guidelines) to improve the quality of public services to the community organized by the government. However, the implementation of PTSP has yet to be implemented in all Indonesian government institutions because several institutions still have difficulties and doubts about its effectiveness. This is the author's background to discuss the Effectiveness of One Stop Administration Services for the Community. This study aims to determine whether there is effectiveness and the level or value of effectiveness provided in providing administrative services for the community through a one-stop line or system in City Y. The method used is descriptive quantitative with data collection techniques, namely observation and interview documentation.
 Moreover, the distribution of the questionnaire to 100 respondents who were selected by purposive sampling. The study results show that the one-stop administrative service is quite effective at 30%. However, it is insignificant in its effectiveness because it still requires adaptation to the system and improvements in various ways.

Best Practices for Accelerating Healthy Environmental Policy from Organisation and Government Institutions in Indonesia

This study discussed the escalation of healthy environmental policies by parties such as environmental organizations and the government. We designed this research in a qualitative descriptive manner where we extracted information from several sources. Then we researched it until we got an answer to finish the discussion. We examine this study under a phenomenological approach. Likewise, data analysis involves data coding, high evaluation, in-depth interpretation, and data organization. After discussing the results, we conclude, among others, that the best practices for accelerating healthy environmental policies by the government and other organizations in the country have helped publicize the government's commitment to maintaining a healthy environment, including conducting seminars, workshops by related organizations, supporting symposiums organized by the government. Other best practices are the healthy living community movement driven by the private sector and the environmental love movement to save the earth is also carried out by various non-governmental organizations, all of which want to encourage the acceleration of policies and Implementation of maintaining a healthy environment in Indonesia.

Analysis of Bureaucratic Reform Through Delayering of Government Institutions in Indonesia

The plan to simplify the bureaucratic structure by streamlining the echelon system is one of the strategies and breakthroughs of bureaucratic reform in Indonesia that was implemented in the first period (2010-2014) and the second period (2015-2019) of Bureaucratic Reform. However, on the other hand, a survey issued by the World Economic Forum shows that Indonesia is still experiencing some difficulties with implementing bureaucratic reforms and has not effectively used the delayering process in its implementation. The purpose of this study is to examine and analyze bureaucratic reforms through delayering of government institutions in Indonesia. This research uses a qualitative type of research with the method of literature review. Researchers have found 15 peer-reviewed journal articles within five years (2017-2021) that follow the research topic, which is then studied and analyzed to obtain comprehensive findings. The results showed that government agencies in Indonesia generally have undergone bureaucratic reforms but have not led to a specific delayering process. The Civil Service (ASN) Law passed in 2014 has also supported the spirit of administrative reform. This shows that delayering within government institutions in Indonesia can provide effective and efficient changes that occur within the governance management of government institutions in Indonesia.

The Roles of Balanced Scorecard in Improving Performance Accountability System in Indonesian Government Organizations

Based on the evaluation report from the Ministry of Administrative and Bureaucratic Reform, the quality of the Indonesian government organisation’s performance accountability is still deficient. Therefore, several Indonesian government institutions have practised the Balanced Scorecard (BSC), a perspective-based performance management tool, to improve their performance accountability. This paper analyses how the Indonesian central government employs BSC and strategy maps to improve its performance accountability systems. A descriptive qualitative study concluded that Indonesian government agencies use different approaches to implement perspectives in the BSC, which they think are best suited to the characteristics of each government organisation. Indonesian government institutions generally implement BSC as a strategy execution tool, a measurement tool, and a performance accountability report. Therefore, these roles of BSC lead to an improved performance accountability system. The essential factors in developing BSC implementation are explained as well. However, this paper only primarily uses data from the Ministry of Finance and focuses only on the central government due to data limitations and time constraints. Therefore, future research is suggested.

Balance Scorecard As a Tools For Measuring The Performance of Government Institutions : A Literature Review

Balanced Scorecard (BSC) was introduced in the United States in the early 1990s and is used as a performance measure in future organizations and as a measurement tool in all institutions. This study aims to explain how the implementation of the balanced scorecard in government agencies in Indonesia in assessing its contribution to the accountability of their performance. This study uses the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method by reviewing and reviewing several journal articles within a period of 5 years starting from 2017 to 2021. The results of this study indicate that the application of the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) in government institutions in Indonesia is used as a tool to measure performance and as information for improving employee performance has been successfully applied in all government sectors. The limitations of this study are the supporting references for research are still inadequate and the theories used have not been updated. This research is expected to add and update insights about the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) in government institutions.

Pendorong dan Penghambat Kesuksesan Pelaksanaan Corporate University Di Lembaga Pemerintah Indonesia

Corporate University (CorpU) began to become an important discourse in the development of the State Civil Aparatus (ASN) in Indonesia since 2014. However, there is still little empirical research on this type of organization. This study focuses on identifying the CorpU model that fits the Indonesian context using the previously described theoretical model. The main research question is what are the drivers and barriers to the implementation of CorpU in Indonesia? By applying a literature review approach, data were collected from 21 documents on the implementation of CorpU in Indonesia, which is collected from 14 institutions that have or are about to implement CorpU in Indonesia.The literature was analyzed to find the factors that encourage and hinder the implementation of CorpU. The results show a number of factors that encourage and hinder the implementation of CorpU in government institutions in Indonesia. The driving factors are (a) availability of human resources, (b) imitation effect, (c) experience in blended learning, (d) institutional encouragement, and (e) top management support. Meanwhile, the five most important inhibiting factors are (a) weak networks and partnerships, (b) weak infrastructure, (c) lack of innovation, (d) fear of change, and (e) unclear administrative responsibilities. The results of this study can help institutions government to develop CorpU as a HR development strategy in institutions in order to adapt to the rapidly growing knowledge and needs of the human resources they have.
