Model penyelenggaraan, baik secara kelompok maupun dengan perorangan dilakukan sesuai dengan peristiwa nikah dan kesediaan calon pengantin. Narasumber lebih sering berasal dari pihak KUA, materi yang disampaikan menyangkut masalah peraturan pemerintah terkait perkawinan, hukum pernikahan, perihal berumah tangga, dan pengingatan kembali proses ijab qabul yang nanti akan dilakukan catin saat melakukan prosesi pernikahan, dan durasi penyelenggaraan secara kelompok kurang lebih 3 jam dan perorangan 1 jam. Secara garis besar, penyelenggaraan Kursus Pra Nikah sudah menganut asas pelayanan publik (UU No. 25/2009), hanya saja pada asas profesional belum bisa dipenuhi karena berbenturan dengan pendanaan yang dimiliki KUA.Kata Kunci: Kursus Pra Nikah, pelayanan publik, Kantor Urusan Agama, Purwakarta.]]>
