What Semen Padang Akademi Jago Bangunan did in Bengkulu
According to ANTARA Sumbar, Semen Padang Akademi Jago Bangunan in South Bengkulu used the tagline “Jago Bangun Keahlian, Bangga Bangun Indonesia”. Participants received product briefings and a full certification path: technical lessons, field practice, then interviews with assessors from the Astekindo Professional Certification Body (LSP). Assessor Yoka Mahendra called the move strategic for professionalising construction labour in South Bengkulu.
Holding the event in Manna, the regency capital, made it easier for local craftsmen to attend. For contractors and building stores there, certified workers help with plastering, brickwork and light casting that use bagged cement.
Why craftsman certification matters for material supply
Win Bernadino, Semen Padang corporate secretary, stressed that craftsmen are the front line of building quality: good materials are not enough if site application is weak. Jambi and Bengkulu area sales manager Ryan Eka Saputra added that “Jago Bangunan” partners need standardised competence.
Participants such as Wijoyo, Riskan and Rangge Anggori said they gained knowledge they can use daily. The local Public Works office said certification supports regional development with better technical standards, safety and workmanship.
- Recognised competency standards help local government gauge construction workforce readiness.
- Material producers get a direct channel to end users on site.
- Small projects and home renovations find it easier to hire workers already tested in practice and interview.
A regional series: Jambi, Kuantan Singingi, then South Bengkulu
The South Bengkulu academy follows similar events in Jambi City and Kuantan Singingi Regency. That regional pattern shows a cement maker reaching craftsman bases across central and southern Sumatra, not only big industrial cities. For homeX, which links building materials with craftsman services and delivery, the same logic applies: materials only create value when site labour can install them to specification.
The day also included entertainment and door prizes, but the reported core remained competency certification. Collaboration among producer, local government and an LSP is a useful model for a more professional construction ecosystem.
