Constitutional Court (MK) Secretary General M. Guntur Hamzah welcomed Jimly School at the 11^th floor of the Constitutional Court building, Wednesday (10/1/2018). Jimly School Director Muzayyin Machbub said that he was introducing the Jimly School of Law and Government, established by 2003–2008 Chief Constitutional Justice Jimly Asshiddiqie.

“The main purpose of the establishment of this institution is to bring prosperity to and educate the nation. Mr. Jimly\'s dream is that he even wants to establish a law university for graduate level not undergraduate," said Muzayyin Machbub to Guntur Hamzah, alongside the Head of the Public Relations and Protocol Bureau of the Constitutional Court Rubiyo and the Head of the Financial and Human Resources Bureau Mulyono. 

Jimly School has organized a number of activities related to law and organization, for example legal drafting training, legal training, seminars, and workshops, as well as training for legal auditors that is currently in demand. "Until today, there have been 61 classes of legal auditor training graduates. Our latest plan is to conduct educational activities for the Constitutional Court Procedural Law. We are hoping for collaboration between Jimly School and the Constitutional Court," Muzayyin added. 

Constitutional Court Secretary General said that the Court has been in collaboration with Jimly School. The Court has sent a number of staff members out of the total 310 to legal drafting training. Guntur said the Constitutional Court was ready to cooperate with Jimly School. "In relation to programs at Jimly School, our staff members can join in some of these programs, such legal drafting training or auditor training," he said. (Nano Tresna Arfana/LA)
