Information and Communication Skills for Higher Learners Competence Model

The sole means through which humans may interact with others in their surroundings, either vocally or non-verbally, is through communication. One subset of soft skills is communication ability. The communication abilities of students have been improved through a variety of methods, particularly at Higher education context. Even if the improvement in the standard of academic accomplishment and student learning is regarded as positive, the effort is still thought to not have reached the right aim yet. The purpose of this study is to investigate the communication-related soft skills of university students, examine students’ communication abilities through the Ulul Albab professional module, and further develop a model of exceptional university students’ communication abilities based on the Ulul Albab professional module. This study used qualitative methodology including document analysis, interviews, and observations. Based on Ulul Albab’s professional module, the data collected are analyzed to create a Higher Learners Competent Model (HLCM) that can improve students’ soft skills, particularly communication abilities.
