Abstract

Character education is a complex matter, which attempts to improve the quality of education through the cultivation of positive character traits in student thought, behavior, and actions. Character education will occur in the consistency and equality of consistency and common perception between education in tertiary education and family education, tertiary education and public education. There are two models for the management of character education in tertiary institutions: macro-education and micro-education. Both approaches need to be implemented holistically and consistently across the three pillars of education: the family, tertiary institutions, and the community. The inculcation of positive character traits is inseparable from the effective management of higher education institutions.
