What is Credit Score Assessment (PAK)?
PAK is an evaluation system based on work achievements in academic and professional fields. It is used to determine promotions or rank advancements, particularly for lecturers and other educators. In the academic world, promotions depend on fulfilling various components, such as teaching, research, community service, and supporting activities.

The socialization event was led by Prof. Dr. Drs. Irianto Widisuseno, M.Hum., a Professor at FIB Undip and the head of the PAK assessment team. Prof. Irianto provided a detailed explanation of the procedures and requirements that lecturers must meet to advance to higher ranks, such as Assistant Professor, Lecturer, Senior Lecturer, and Professor.
