Abstract

In the context of globalization, the main challenge for PAK education is how to form graduates who not only have a strong theological understanding, but also adequate social sensitivity and intercultural abilities. Meanwhile, in the context of multiculturalism, PAK higher education is required to open a space for dialogue with the diversity of beliefs and cultural values that live in society. The transformative higher education of PAK produces not only ecclesiastical educators or ministers, but also agents of social change capable of bridging the Christian faith with the challenges of the contemporary world. The method used in this study is a qualitative study based on the study of theological and educational literature. This study emphasizes that PAK higher education must continue to move in a contextual, reflective, and transformative direction in order to remain relevant and meaningful in its encounter with a pluralistic global reality.

Abstract

Permendikbudristek No. 41 of 2021 concerning Recognition of Past Learning (RPL) is a strategic breakthrough in recognizing non-formal and informal learning experiences as learning achievements. This policy reflects a new paradigm of education that is inclusive, fair and flexible. This article aims to analyze the content, objectives, and implications of this law by emphasizing the opportunities and challenges in its implementation. In the context of Christian education, RPL opens up opportunities for the integration of ecclesial service experiences and faith-based learning into formal academic recognition. This strengthens the contextual approach and expands access to higher education for ministers and congregations. However, challenges such as standardization of assessments, institutional readiness, and understanding the concept of RPL still need to be addressed. This study uses qualitative methods and aims to contribute to relevant and transformative Christian education systems and practices.
