Universitas Pembangunan Jaya adopts the Jaya Values—Integrity, Fairness, Commitment, Achievement Drive, and Intrapreneurship—in its efforts to create an educational environment that supports the development of students' character and competencies, while also shaping individuals who are ready to contribute positively to society. Therefore, Universitas Pembangunan Jaya established a program for student soft skills development called the Jaya Softskill Development Program (JSDP).
JSDP is a series of programs at UPJ that provide students with opportunities to improve their skills in both academic and non-academic areas. These skills and achievements are acknowledged and rewarded through a point-based system. JSDP encompasses five dimensions of intrapersonal abilities or soft skills implemented at UPJ, namely: Communication, Leadership, Ethics, Achievements, and Resilience.
The activities within the Jaya Softskill Development Program (JSDP) include various fields, such as Scientific and Reasoning activities, Interests and Talents, Community Service, Organizational and Self-Development, MBKM (Freedom to Learn—Independent Campus) programs, Belmawa and PKM programs, and acceleration initiatives.
