Internalization of the “BerAKHLAK” civil service values through basic training for civil service candidates

Internalizing the ASN BerAKHLAK values through Basic Training for Civil Service Candidates (Latsar CPNS) is a crucial component in developing a professional civil service focused on public service. This study aims to analyze learning strategies that support the internalization of ASN BerAKHLAK values as well as program evaluation approaches to assess the process and outcomes of their implementation. The method used is a literature review examining relevant journal articles, books, laws and regulations, and official documents. The literature was analyzed using a descriptive-qualitative approach through the identification, categorization, comparison, and synthesis of information based on two main focuses: learning strategies and program evaluation. The results of the study indicate that the internalization of values must be supported by contextual learning that links conceptual understanding to work experience through case studies, problem-solving, assignments, collaborative discussions, simulations, and reflection. Mentoring and organizational support are crucial aspects for the sustainable implementation of these values. Program evaluation must go beyond measuring satisfaction and knowledge to include work behavior through clear indicators, the use of multiple sources of evidence, and follow-up assessments after training. However, training alone cannot explain behavioral change, as organizational conditions also influence it.
