Through BBI, we want to encourage students to continuously sharpen their strengths, think adaptively, and build resilient character so they are ready to face the next chapter in their professional lives.”
UNU NTB Rector Dr. Baiq Mulianah, M.Pd.I, expressed her appreciation for the presence of BBI on campus: “We highly appreciate BCA’s presence among UNU NTB students. This public lecture is an important moment for all of us, especially our beloved students, to broaden their understanding of the professional world and the importance of building professional attitudes early on. We hope this collaboration will continue in order to produce an excellent and competitive young generation.”
Through BBI, BCA continues to demonstrate its commitment to supporting the development of high-quality, adaptive Indonesian human resources who are ready to face global challenges. The program also serves as a bridge between industry and education, reinforcing BCA’s contribution to realizing the vision of Indonesia Emas 2045.
Throughout 2025, BCA Berbagi Ilmu has visited several universities across Indonesia, reaching more than 5,117 students. The BBI program at UNU NTB is part of a public lectures series held at various universities in 2025, including Brawijaya University, University of Indonesia, Gadjah Mada University, IPB University, Andalas University, Widya Mandala Catholic University, and Multimedia Nusantara University.
“We believe that the nation’s future is determined by the quality of its young generation. Through BCA Berbagi Ilmu, we aim to ignite a spirit of learning that is not only oriented toward academic achievement, but also toward building strong character and resilient attitudes. This is the true provision for facing a constantly changing world, while serving as a foundation for making real contributions to society,” Widodo concluded.
In addition to BBI, as part of its consistent support for youth development, BCA also introduced the “Genera-Z Berbakti” under the Bakti BCA umbrella program. This program engages students in community service through funding, mentoring, and support for scientific publications.

Preparing for the Future Professional Work with Skills and Positive Attitudes – BCA Director Antonius Widodo Mulyono spoke at the BBI public lecture at Universitas Nahdlatul Ulama NTB (UNU NTB), Friday (21/11). Amid national efforts to increase the gross enrollment rate (GER) in higher education, which currently stands at only 32 percent, the role of private universities such as UNU NTB is becoming increasingly crucial. The government targets GER to reach 38 percent by 2029, yet challenges remain for university graduates entering the workforce across various industries. BCA Berbagi Ilmu (BBI) serves as a bridge to strengthen student readiness in facing dynamic times, while expanding collaboration between industry and higher education. BBI is one of Bakti BCA’s flagship initiatives under the Bakti Pendidikan pillar, supporting the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) on Quality Education. Through BBI, BCA strives to equip students with essential insights to prepare themselves for the world of work.
