Gorontalo: Gorontalo State University is preparing to implement the Second Class Teacher Professional Education Program (PPG) in 2021. The form of preparation is carried out by holding a Coordination Meeting for the preparation of PPG implementation.

Head of PPG Study Program Prof. Dr. Nurhayati Abbas, M.Pd, said that the implementation of PPG in Class II this year was different from the previous one. "The difference between PPG last year and now is in the activities of teachers in designing learning," said Prof. Nurhayati.
