Modul LK 1 HMI

The Islamic Student Association (HMI) [1] is a student organization established in Yogyakarta on 14 Rabiul Awal 1366 H on February 5, 1947, at the initiative of Lafran Pane and 14 students of the Islamic High School (now the Indonesian Islamic University).

In order to realize the ideals of HMI's future struggle, HMI must emphasize its position in the life of the community, nation and state in order to carry out its responsibilities with all Indonesian people in realizing a just and prosperous society that is blessed by Allah SWT. In article three (3) on principles it is emphasized that HMI is an organization based on Islam and originates from the Al-Qur'an and As-Sunnah. The affirmation of this article reflects that in its dynamics, HMI always carries out its duties and responsibilities with an Islamic spirit that does not neglect the spirit of nationality. In this dynamic, HMI as a youth organization emphasizes its nature as an independent student organization (Article 6 AD HMI), has the status of a student organization (Article 7 AD HMI), has a function as a cadre organization (Article 8 AD HMI) and acts 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 are arranged in an integralistic spirit to strive for the achievement of organizational goals. Therefore, in an effort to provide clarity and firmness on the intended cadre system, a national HMI cadre pattern must be made.

Formal training is training that is carried out in the framework of forming a cadre's personality in a systematic and tiered manner. Basically, this formal training must be followed by all cadres according to their level without being related to the structural position that is currently being held, meaning that they are not allowed to set structural requirements to participate in formal training. Formal training consists of 3 (three) levels, namely: Cadre I Training, Cadre II Training, and Cadre III Training.

The aim of the Cadre I training is "The development of a Muslim personality with academic quality, aware of his function and role in organization as well as his rights and obligations as a cadre of the ummah and nation's cadre".

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

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

2. Able to improve academic abilities

3. Having awareness of public and national responsibilities

4. Having organizational awareness
