Modul LK 1 HMI

The Islamic Student Association (HMI)[1] is a student organization founded in Yogyakarta on 14 Rabiul Awal 1366 H coinciding with 5 February 1947, on the initiative of Lafran Pane and 14 students from the Islamic College (now the Islamic University of Indonesia).

In order to realize the ideals of HMI's struggle in the future, HMI must reinforce its position in the life of society, nation and state in order to carry out its responsibilities with all Indonesian people in realizing a just and prosperous society blessed by Allah SWT. In article three (3) regarding principles, it is emphasized that HMI is an organization based on Islam and based on the Al-Qur'an and As-Sunnah. The affirmation of this article reflects that in its dynamics, HMI always carries out duties and responsibilities with an Islamic spirit that does not override the national spirit. In this dynamic, HMI as a youth organization emphasizes its nature as an independent student organization (Article 6 AD HMI), has status as a student organization (Article 7 AD HMI), has a function as a cadre organization (Article 8 AD HMI) and plays a role as a struggle organization ( Article 9 AD HMI).

In carrying out its function as a cadre organization, HMI uses a systematic approach in its entire cadre process. All forms of cadre activities/activities are arranged in an integralistic spirit to strive for the achievement of organizational goals. Therefore, as an effort to provide clarity and firmness to the intended cadre system, a national HMI cadre pattern must be made.

Formal training is training that is carried out in order to form the personality of cadres in a systematic and tiered manner. Basically, this formal training must be followed by all cadres according to their level regardless of the structural position being held, meaning that it is not permissible to set structural requirements to attend formal training. Formal training consists of 3 (three) levels, namely: Cadre Training I, Cadre Training II, and Cadre Training III.

The purpose of the Cadre Training I is "to foster Muslim personalities who are of academic quality, aware of their functions and roles in organizing and their rights and obligations as cadres of the people and cadres of the nation".

The target of the Cadre Training I is for HMI cadres to:

1. Having awareness of carrying out Islamic teachings in everyday life
