Abstract

Academic administration services are a crucial component in supporting the smooth running of higher education, particularly within the Faculty of Vocational Studies, which emphasizes speed, accuracy, and efficiency. This study aims to evaluate the quality of academic administration services at the Faculty of Vocational Studies, University of North Sumatra, based on student perceptions, identify barriers in the service process, and explore user expectations and input on service quality improvements. The approach used was descriptive qualitative, with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation of 10 purposively selected respondents. The results showed that service quality was considered quite good in terms of reliability and tangibles, but weaknesses remained in the dimensions of responsiveness, empathy, and assurance. Obstacles found included: lack of clarity in procedural information, unresponsiveness from staff, the absence of an online document tracking system, and minimal empathy in service communications. Service users expect improvements in interpersonal communication, procedural consistency, and accelerated service through the digitization of the administrative system. Therefore, improving the quality of academic administration services needs to focus on strengthening staff competencies, developing technology-based service systems, and establishing a humanistic and responsive service culture.

Abstract

Anemia and stunting are significant public health issues that require immediate attention to prevent adverse impacts on maternal and child health, as well as the overall quality of human resources. One of the leading causes of maternal mortality is iron deficiency anemia, often compounded by inadequate antenatal care (ANC). In addition, poor maternal nutritional status negatively affects pregnancy outcomes, such as low birth weight, and hinders optimal growth and development in infants—factors that contribute to the risk of stunting. In both Indonesia and Vietnam, the prevalence of anemia among pregnant women remains high, ranging between 30–40%. Similarly, the prevalence of stunting in both countries is also elevated, estimated at 20–30%. Given this situation, early intervention through nutrition education for pregnant women is crucial to improve dietary patterns that meet balanced nutritional needs. Moreover, monitoring antenatal care practices is necessary to assess the level of compliance and ensure proper pregnancy management. This community engagement activity involves collaboration with health workers from the sub-health centers (Puskesmas Pembantu) in Medan, Indonesia, and Hanoi, Vietnam, as local partners. It is expected that by empowering pregnant women through nutrition education, maternal nutritional status can be improved, thereby contributing to the fulfillment of the First 1,000 Days of Life (HPK) nutrition framework and ultimately supporting efforts to prevent stunting.

Abstract

Employee performance is a crucial factor in determining the effectiveness of government institutions, particularly in public service agencies such as the Population Control and Family Planning Agency (DPPKB) of Labuhanbatu Utara Regency. In recent years, the agency's performance achievements have declined, allegedly due to low work discipline and weak organizational commitment among employees. This study aims to analyze the effect of work discipline on employee performance, with organizational commitment as an intervening variable. The research employs a quantitative approach using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) based on Partial Least Squares (PLS). Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 57 DPPKB employees. The analysis results show that work discipline has a positive and significant effect on both employee performance and organizational commitment. Moreover, organizational commitment also significantly affects employee performance and is proven to mediate the relationship between work discipline and performance. These findings emphasize the importance of fostering discipline and strengthening organizational commitment to improve the effectiveness of public service. In conclusion, optimal improvement in employee performance can only be achieved when discipline is supported by a high level of organizational commitment.
