Malang, July 2025 — CMM Translation is proud to announce that our Managing Director, Ms. Rika Agusmelda, was once again invited as a guest speaker for the Center of Excellence (CoE) program organized by Universitas Muhammadiyah Malang (UMM), particularly in the Arabic Language Education Department. This marks her third appearance at the program, reflecting the university’s continued recognition of her contributions in bridging academia and the professional world.
With the theme “Mindset for Entering the Professional World,” Ms. Rika delivered an engaging session focused on equipping students with the mental readiness and professional attitude needed to navigate today’s dynamic workforce. She emphasized that success is not solely determined by technical expertise, but also by a growth mindset, strong communication skills, and a consistent work ethic.
“Students need to have an open mindset, be willing to learn new things, and be able to collaborate with people from different backgrounds,”
she shared during the session.
Ms. Rika also encouraged students to start building their professional networks, recognize their individual strengths, and actively pursue real-world experiences. These, she stressed, are key to thriving in a competitive and fast-evolving global landscape.
The session received enthusiastic responses from students, many of whom expressed renewed motivation and clarity regarding their future careers. Their active participation and thoughtful questions highlighted a genuine desire to grow—academically, mentally, and emotionally.
Ms. Rika’s recurring presence at UMM continues to serve as a source of inspiration and empowerment, preparing the next generation of graduates to face the professional world with confidence, capability, and purpose.
