Lombok IT Academy

Lombok IT Academy, as part of the special agenda of Developer Lombok IT, was specifically established by the CEO of Developer Lombok IT (Mr. Bagis) to provide training that goes beyond theory and focuses on developing practical skills in real-time. Each agenda will produce a digital product within the chosen training days/hours. This training program is developed using a HYBRID approach, covering various platforms and technologies highly sought after by companies and the global technology industry.

Participants in Lombok IT Academy training sessions will gain an in-depth understanding of platforms widely used for application development, including systems for Android, iOS, and Windows PC.

Lombok IT Academy designs its offline training materials with a focus (particularly) on the field of Education (Self-Development, Research, and Community Service) and global market demands. Thus, each training session is not only relevant but can be directly applied in the real-world technology and information industry.

In addition, training is also conducted entirely online (24/7) through the official Lombok IT Academy YouTube channel, allowing participants to access training anytime and anywhere without waiting for further instructions, unlike other training programs (which often require applications that are unfamiliar to many users).

With this flexibility, participants can learn at their own pace and convenience. Each training session is divided into topics, ensuring participants gain comprehensive and up-to-date knowledge in their chosen technology field.

The following points provide an overview of the format/concept of training that will be conducted through "Lombok IT Academy":

Training Conducted Exclusively Offline and Online
via the Official "Lombok IT Academy" YouTube Channel

Lombok IT Academy understands the importance of accessible and open education. All training is conducted offline and online through our official YouTube channel. Participants can join anytime according to their schedule and needs. Each session presents different agendas and topics relevant to the latest technology trends.

International Standard Training in Bilingual Format

One of the main strengths of Lombok IT Academy is its commitment to providing Professional International standard training to everyone, regardless of nationality. Training is delivered in two languages, English and Indonesian, ensuring accessibility for a diverse audience.

The CEO of Developer Lombok IT (as the main instructor) has a background as an English Lecturer with strong expertise in language and technology, ensuring that all participants are guided by a professional in the field.

Main Training Target:

Lombok IT Academy primarily targets its training towards Students/University Students and Teachers/Lecturers. The goal is to enhance educational contributions, help educators stay updated with the latest technology, and support students in preparing for the digital world. Content is specifically designed to serve the academic community.

For Teachers and Lecturers, Lombok IT Academy offers opportunities to update their knowledge of the latest technologies. This is very important to ensure they teach using relevant tools and methods. Training helps them deliver modern technology-based content effectively to students.

One of the main goals for educators is to change their "MINDSET", especially for lecturers, regarding the true definition of research that aligns with the Operational Guidelines for Lecturer Workload (PO BKD) implemented in the Integrated Resource Information System (SISTER).
Here, research is not limited to articles or academic journals but also includes technology development as an integral part of research activities. This is practical, cost-effective, and encourages innovation among faculty.

Meanwhile, students/university students benefit by learning practical technological skills in demand by the industry. They can access training anytime, enhancing their knowledge and skills, providing a competitive advantage in the global job market.

This international training is also open to the general public who genuinely want to improve their IT competencies.

Training Certificate and International Certification

All Lombok IT Academy participants will receive an International Training Certificate and an International Age Rating Certification Based on User Age Range named IARC (International Age rating Coalition), a body for global digital product age ratings and certification.

The International Age Rating Certification Based on User Age Range/IARC (International Age rating Coalition) will be granted after the training output is published on the Google PlayStore. All related processes and fees will be fully covered by Developer Lombok IT.

This makes the Developer Lombok IT program through Lombok IT Academy truly unique. For the first time (and beyond), participants will receive international recognition without personal financial burden.

This is a significant added value for participants—enhancing their skills and professional credibility in the technology industry.

"On behalf of the CEO of Developer Lombok IT, as one of the official international developers under the Google Developer Play Console, we do/provide all this with our primary goal being to encourage participants to innovate and develop new solutions.
Through the International Age Rating Certification Based on User Age Range named IARC (International Age rating Coalition), they can legally protect their creations, gain peace of mind, and obtain exclusive rights for further development."
(Abdul Kadir Bagis, M.Pd)

History

Developer Lombok IT was officially founded by Mr. Abdul Kadir Bagis, M.Pd in 2018. It was formerly known as Lombok Academy. Developer Lombok IT began publicly publishing its applications in 2020. Mr. Bagis is a master's degree alumnus from UNS (Universitas Sebelas Maret Surakarta) in 2012. Most of his coding skills were self-taught during his postgraduate studies in English Education, influenced by his network of gamers with whom he grew up.

During his college years (2010–2012), the digitalization of HYBRID systems started to grow rapidly in Indonesia. However, it was not widely used for personal purposes at that time. Most technologies were mainly utilized by government institutions. These technologies were still considered new and challenging to teach, and when applied in education, Java Island was the primary base before spreading to other regions.

Driven by his personal interest in entertainment, especially gaming, he noticed that gaming systems shared similar concepts with Android operating systems, particularly as both heavily use JAVA. Without any formal IT education (specifically on HYBRID Engine Systems), he mastered Android concepts in a relatively short time. When asked about Android, his simple answer was: "Easy."

Before graduating from UNS (2012), he developed a communication app for his gamer community to stay connected online. He named it "WAGs (We Are Gamers)." The app had a concept similar to modern-day social media, particularly WhatsApp.

In essence, concepts similar to WhatsApp existed long before, especially during the 1990s when the ICQ instant messaging service was a popular live communication tool among youth. He recalled how ICQ worked and applied small tweaks/modifications to adapt it for Android through his WAGs app.

One of his closest friends (his own younger brother), who was also in the WAGs group, suggested incorporating the gaming social media concept into the education sector. This eventually inspired him to establish Developer Lombok IT.

The core purpose of founding Developer Lombok IT was: To make education (especially) more accessible by utilizing HYBRID technology features, which have become a common part of everyday life, and to help citizens meet their digitalization needs more easily.

As a token of appreciation for his brother's suggestion, one of his game themes included an animated character named "The Guy (that always beats us)." This was a memory of their time as gamers together, where his brother still beats him in games—a bond that has kept their relationship close and joyful.

Developer Lombok IT has officially published dozens of applications on its official developer portal via the Google Developer Play Console under the account name "Developer Lombok IT". One of its applications, since December 2023, has been used by local government institutions under the Ministry of Environment and Forestry of the Republic of Indonesia, in collaboration with the Environmental Laboratory Center, Department of Environment and Forestry of West Nusa Tenggara Province. The app is called "LABLING DLHK NTB".

The newest application, related to the Smart City (Desa Cerdas) program by KEMENDES (Ministry of Villages), is named E-KARYA (Electronic - People's Administrative Acceleration), and has been in use by Pejarakan Karya Urban Village in Ampenan since August 2024.
