Sertifikasi pendidik merupakan sebuah program yang bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kinerja guru, atau dengan kata lain pemilikan sertifikat pendidik oleh guru merupakan representasi kualitas kinerja guru itu sendiri. Dengan adanya sertifikasi juga diharapkan memiliki pengaruh yang sangat besar terhadap kinerja guru. Tujuan utama diadakan program sertifikasi adalah untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan, kinerja, kreatifitas, serta mampu menjalankan fungsi-fungsi lainnya yang berhubungan dengan proses belajar mengajar. Berdasarkan latar belakang masalah di atas, peneliti tertarik untuk mengungkapkan fenomena ini kedalam sebuah bentuk penelitian.Tujuan dilakukannya penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui apakah sertifikasi yang telah didapatkan guru berpengaruh terhadap kinerja guru Madrasah. Sertifikasi merupakan sarana atau instrumen untuk mencapai suatu tujuan, bukan tujuan itu sendiri. Perlu ada kesadaran dan pemahaman dari semua pihak bahwa sertifikasi adalah sarana untuk menuju kualitas. Kesadaran dan pemahaman ini akan melahirkan aktivitas yang benar, bahwa apapun yang dilakukan adalah untuk mencapai kualitas. Kalau seorang guru kembali masuk kampus untuk meningkatkan kualifikasinya, maka belajar kembali ini bertujuan untuk mendapatkan tambahan ilmu pengetahuan dan keterampilan, sehingga mendapatkan ijazah sarjana.

This study aims to analyze the leadership and management practices of the Heads of the Ministry of Religious Affairs Offices in improving the performance of supervisors at State Islamic Senior High Schools in Jambi Province. Utilizing a qualitative approach with a phenomenological method, the research was conducted across several local Ministry offices. The findings reveal four key aspects. First, performance improvement planning is typically conducted through coordination meetings at the beginning of the academic year. Second, supervisor performance enhancement is carried out through official briefings, routine school visits, and both formal and informal coaching, though its implementation remains inconsistent due to limited time, the advanced age of many supervisors, and the broad scope of their responsibilities. Third, performance monitoring tends to emphasize administrative compliance rather than substantive areas such as managerial guidance or support for the Merdeka Curriculum. Fourth, key obstacles include a shortage of qualified supervisors, insufficient training provided by the Ministry, and weak structural alignment between Ministry leadership and supervisor working groups, which often operate independently. The study recommends the strengthening of technical regulations, recruitment of subject-specific supervisors, implementation of continuous curriculum-based training, and the empowerment of Ministry heads as strategic leaders in supervisory management. Strengthening these aspects is expected to significantly enhance the quality of madrasah education in the region.

This study aims to analyze the influence of school principal leadership, teaching quality, and student motivation on academic achievement at private senior high schools in the Riau Islands Province. The research method used is quantitative with a survey approach. The sample consisted of eight randomly selected private senior high schools. Data were collected using questionnaires and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling to examine both direct and indirect effects among variables. The results showed that school principal leadership had a positive and significant effect of 12.2% on students' academic achievement. Teaching quality had a positive influence of 20.1%, and student motivation contributed 9.6% to academic achievement. Simultaneously, principal leadership and teaching quality contributed 26.3% to students' academic achievement. Furthermore, principal leadership and teaching quality significantly influenced student motivation, contributing 22.4% and 28.1% respectively, and jointly 30.6%. Student motivation acted as a mediating variable that strengthened the influence of principal leadership (15.3%) and teaching quality (17.4%) on academic achievement. Based on these findings, it is recommended that principals improve their leadership, teachers enhance their teaching quality, and students increase their learning motivation to support the improvement of academic achievement in private senior high schools in the Riau Islands Province.

This study aims to analyze pesantren management practices in developing Islamic Religious Education (PAI) and to formulate an integrative management model that enhances the effectiveness and sustainability of PAI implementation in Islamic boarding schools. This research employed a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data were collected through observations, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis. The collected data were analyzed using an interactive analysis model consisting of data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing and verification. The findings indicate that effective pesantren management is developed through the integration of planning, organizing, implementation, and supervision, supported by curriculum integration, teacher development, student character formation, religious habituation, and educational activities. PAI implementation extends beyond classroom instruction by facilitating the internalization of Islamic values, including faith, worship, morality, discipline, responsibility, and leadership. This study proposes an Integrative Management Model for Islamic Boarding Schools in the Development of Islamic Religious Education, which provides a conceptual and practical framework for strengthening pesantren governance and improving the quality of Islamic Religious Education.

The internationalization of higher education requires universities to balance their institutional capacity, financial support, service quality, and international student welfare. However, limited research has examined how these dimensions interact within Indonesia’s international student service management. This qualitative single-case study examined international student intake, scholarship adequacy, and integrated support in the doctoral program of an Indonesian state Islamic University. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with six purposively selected participants: one academic leader, two administrative staff members, and three international doctoral students. The interviews were complemented by non-participant observations and institutional document analysis. Data were analyzed through condensation, display, thematic categorization, and conclusion drawing and verification. The findings indicate that student intake was aligned with academic supervision, learning facilities, administrative readiness, and service quality, rather than continuous enrollment growth. Scholarship support enabled academic participation, although participants reported that the available financial assistance did not always cover daily living costs. Institutional capacity, academic guidance, administrative responsiveness, learning facilities, financial support, and student welfare are interconnected components of service delivery. The study highlights that sustainable internationalization depends on matching recruitment ambitions with coordinated academic, administrative, financial, and welfare support systems.

The development of religious character in Islamic schools requires more than the provision of religious activities; it demands systematic institutional leadership that integrates religious values into curriculum, culture, and daily practice. This study examines how madrasah principals manage the strengthening of students' religious behaviour in State Madrasah Aliyah schools in Jambi Province, Indonesia. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through observations, in-depth interviews, and documentation at three State Madrasah Aliyah schools (MAN 1 Jambi City, MAN 1 Sungai Penuh, and MAN 1 Tanjung Jabung Barat). The findings reveal that while religious programs such as Qur'an recitation, congregational prayer, and Islamic studies have been implemented, their effectiveness is constrained by four interrelated factors: (1) predominantly formal and administrative planning with limited stakeholder participation; (2) weak integration between religious and general subject teaching; (3) inadequate monitoring and evaluation mechanisms; and (4) insufficient collaboration with parents and the community. Effective principal leadership was found to require not only program design but also continuous engagement, role modelling, and the strategic use of digital media to support religious education. The study contributes to the literature on Islamic school leadership by demonstrating that religious character development depends on the alignment of leadership, curriculum, teacher capacity, family involvement, and sustained evaluation. These findings have implications for principal preparation, professional development, and educational policy in Islamic schools across Indonesia and comparable contexts.
