The language exam at UIN KHAS Jember faces significant challenges, including unclear SOPs, vague staff job descriptions, limited funding, and inadequate infrastructure, which hinder its effectiveness. Efforts to address issues, such as proxy test-takers, include identity verification, a shift to offline exams, and hiring interns. However, these measures have not fully resolved systemic problems, such as the absence of official certificate templates and poor coordination. Comprehensive improvements in SOPs, staffing, infrastructure, and funding are needed to enhance the exam's organization, efficiency, and long term effectiveness.
