ALL THE JOB HAS DONE, SPEAC READY FOR ANNUAL CONFERENCE

December 1st 2019
After Corel Draw Training has successfully held last month, that’s mean all the programme of SPEAC in 2019 has completely done. Along 2019, SPEAC had some agenda, it was consist of annual event and non-annual event. The annual event was like Halaqoh, TOEFL Training, BLC, and many more ware going well. The non-annual event, such as study club is also done quite well. All of those agenda has various objectives, from the language learning purposed such as study club and TOEFL Training, organizational purposed such as TOA and Halaqoh, and also social purpose such as Pesantren Kilat.
The successful of holding all those agenda isn’t gained easily. SPEAC functionaries had to face so many obstacles and trouble. It was getting harder than the previous period because the functionaries of SPEAC is split up about 20 KM away, some of them stay on Panjang Campus and the rest doing their study in Kajen Campus. This condition made them need to think harder, how to keep in touch and how to keep a good coordination. Despite the communication issues could be handled by using technology, but it’s still consuming a lot of time to gathering the people because of that distance issue. That was the biggest and the most time-waster problem they faced. The another problem such as misunderstanding each other or irresponsibility of some functionaries could be solved well.
Overall, what the functionaries had done is quite good and deserve to get appreciation. Obviously there are so many things that need to improved, but we can’t deny that SPEAC functionaries are also human with all their imperfection. And for now they will held the very last event, that is SPEAC Confernce. It will be held on December 7-8th 2019. They should discussing about some issues and presenting the responsibily report. This event is also mean the farewell of recent functionaries and will be continued with the election of the next SPEAC leader for 2020 period. The good organization is always move forward. So we all put our hope to the next chief that will be appointed to lead UKM SPEAC to the better way.

What is the toefl test?
The higher-standard TOEFL test measures the ability of non-native English speakers to use and understand English as it’s read, written, heard and spoken in the university classroom. It is designed to help you do well by preparing you to express yourself confidently in English in the university environment. This test is still one of the major benchmarks of understanding English. So UKM SPEAC on Monday, 11st of November 2019 to Saturday, 16th of November 2019 held an event to training test the TOEFL which is the name is TOEFL Training.
Which is TOEFL is one of the requirements in the process towards to Munaqosah Trial event’s for IAIN Pekalongan student’s. So every year, UKM SPEAC hold a TOEFL Training as training before the Campus IAIN Pekalongan be held a TOEFL Test in real, in order to being got a high score in TOEFL Test.

This proram was held in the Lolong area on 2-3 November 2019. This activity was chaired by Miftahul Azizah who was a member of the PSDM division. The committee carries the theme "great leaders prove their worthiness". This program was attended by approximately fourty members of Spirit English and Arabic Club (SPEAC). The purpose of holding this activity is to provide leadership training, so that the soul of leadership is able to be embedded in the members or participants who follow it.
This cadre-based activity was opened by the chief of the UKM SPEAC. He is Catur Yudhi Prasetyo because the coach of the UKM SPEAC Mr. Fuad Al-Amin was unable to attend this program.
