Dr. H. Abdul Mu'id

Abstract: Certificated teacher is tested professionalism teacher, because certificated teacher is a trained and tested teacher in teachers professional development, after being trained by LPTK in the environment of education and religious departments. However, to make sure whether a teacher is professional or not depends on how the teacher wants to collect more experience or not. In fact, a lot of teachers have been certificated, but they remain on the tracks, because having teaching certificate without no demand of adding or honing their ability, will make them become aftermost teachers. In addition, in the government era of JOKOWI JK, the certificated teachers passing grade is 80. This becomes a hard challenge for the teachers and headmasters. The government is rounding in bushes in giving allowance for teachers whose profession as the spearhead changes of the children nation. Moreover, in the government era of JOKOWI JK, teachers are less considered in getting welfare especially non civil servant teachers. When compared to the Professional labor of Factory, there is a significance difference, because factorys labor in East Java, especially in Gresik Regency has reached Rp.3, 580, 369.00. per month, while non-civil servant teachers salary is not reaching that extent on average. Here comes a significance difference to the non-civil servant teachers. Meanwhile, ministry of education and society has nothing to do about the recent situation. How can teachers teach properly if the allowance is not fulfilled the needs of their family, in fact, most of the teachers are having magister degree when the factorys labor dont need to reach the degree in order to get the proper allowance that fulfilled their needs. This thing needs to be the main priority of the rest of the government era of Jokowi-JK.
