Comparative Analysis on Staffs Professionalism in Faculty of Education and Teacher Training UIN SUSKA Riau Based on Gender

Abstract

In an organization, the availability of qualified staff is equivalent to the quality of the human resources and their outputs in the organization. This study aimed to analyze the professionalism of staffs in the Faculty of Education and Teacher Training, UIN SUSKA Riau. This study is essential because all system and processes in the faculty have been done by the staffs to achieve the vision and missions of the university. The study used a mixed method to triangulate data, where the qualitative ones explained the quantitative data. There were 43 respondents participated in the study, comprised of 20 (46.50%) males and 23 (53.50%) females. The instruments were validated in a pilot project, where the instruments' reliability was assessed. The results show that the Cronbach's alpha value reached 0.924, which means the instruments were excellent to be used in the study. There was no significant difference between the staffs' professionalism based on their gender (p>0.01). We expected that the study results provide a suggestion for future staff recruitment in the faculty to be based on skills and proficiency, not on gender.
