The 2025 National Education Day (Hardiknas) celebration at Universitas PGRI Madiun (UNIPMA) was marked with enthusiasm and pride. Held on Friday, May 2, 2025, at the Integrated Laboratory Courtyard of UNIPMA, the ceremony served as a powerful symbol of the university’s unwavering commitment to being more than just a producer of undergraduate and postgraduate graduates — but also a shaper of intelligent, creative, cultured, resilient, and socially committed individuals.

The ceremony was led by the Vice Rector for Academic Affairs, Dr. Elva Nuraina, S.E., M.Si., who served as the inspector of the ceremony. This annual event was welcomed with high enthusiasm from the entire academic community. From lecturers to students, all participated solemnly in a moment of reflection on the nation’s educational journey.

UNIPMA continues to strengthen its path as an impact-driven research university. This is evident from its achievements, including national and international student exchange programs, collaborative research with other universities, and tangible community service efforts across various regions. This year, UNIPMA has also been entrusted to host Porsenasma 2025, a prestigious national sports and arts competition for students from all PGRI-affiliated universities throughout Indonesia.

UNIPMA’s commitment to education is also reflected in its integration of Pancasila values into both its academic system and campus life. For UNIPMA, education is not merely the transfer of knowledge, but a process of enlightening the nation rooted in noble national values.
