What Penelitian dan Pelatihan Ekonomika dan Bisnis FEB UGM does

RDSI (Penelitian dan Pelatihan Ekonomika dan Bisnis / Research and Development and Societal Impact Unit) is a non-profit academic research and training unit embedded within the Faculty of Economics and Business at Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM) in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. It operates with a small team of approximately seven employees and functions as the institutional bridge between FEB UGM's academic resources and external demand for applied economics, finance, and data-analytics training. Its service portfolio addresses three primary segments: private-sector professionals seeking skill development, government officials and state-owned enterprise (BUMN) employees requiring capacity building, and academic researchers needing publication support and microdata access.

The unit's product surface comprises five core offerings: the Tax Course (a professional tax training program), TOEFL ITP and EPT (English proficiency testing services), BPS Data Services (a managed intermediary platform for accessing Badan Pusat Statistik microdata via documented request workflows), the Macroeconomic and Microeconomic Dashboards (research fields hosted on dedicated subdomains), and the Scientific Publication Bootcamp (a workshop program for international journal publishing). Underlying technology consists of an academic web platform, dashboard infrastructure, a BPS microdata request portal, and a WhatsApp chatbot for inbound inquiries; no native mobile applications, public APIs, SDKs, or MCP integrations are offered.

The revenue model rests on fee-based professional services — primarily course and workshop fees, examination fees for English-proficiency testing, and event-driven training engagements with institutional partners such as Bank BPD DIY. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; programs appear quote-based and vary by cohort and partner. Distribution is conducted through direct enterprise sales for B2B training engagements, on-campus workshop delivery for professional certification, and self-serve digital access for BPS microdata requests. Marketing is largely institutional, relying on the parent university's brand, the unit's website, and referral-driven partnerships rather than paid acquisition channels.
