The Director of LSP ISI Yogyakarta, Pamungkas Wahyu Setiyanto, M.Sn., stated that the competency certification test for students is an effort to ensure that the lulusan's competency standards are met, aligning with industry competency standards. Students who are declared competent will receive a competency certificate as proof of recognition for their skill proficiency.
