/in /by

Basic Training (Latsar) for Prospective Civil Servants is important to prepare civil servants who have integrity, professionalism, neutrality, independence, and are free from political interference, as well as the ability to provide good public services to the community. For this reason, this study aims to see the impact of the CPNS Latsar on the attitudes and behavior of Latsar Batch 4 Kerinci Regency participants in 2021 which is measured through the basic values ​​of civil servants (ANEKA). The research method used is a mixed research method, namely qualitative and quantitative. The subjects of the study were CPNS Latsar participants who were appointed to 4 Kerinci districts in 2021 with 181 participants and the head of the Latsar work unit within the Kerinci district. Instruments of data collection were done through interview guide sheets, observation sheets, questionnaire sheets, and test sheets for CPNS Latsar participants. Quantitative data collection techniques were carried out through pretest and posttest activities. Furthermore, qualitative data was collected through open questionnaires and interviews with the leaders of the Latsar participants after they returned to their respective work environments. Quantitative analysis was carried out by analyzing before and after the implementation of Basic Training (Latsar) through the independent simple t test method. Meanwhile, qualitative data analysis was carried out through triangulation which consisted of data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. To see how much influence Latsar activities have on changes in participants’ attitudes and behavior, the N-gain test is carried out. The findings of the study indicate that there is a significant effect on the implementation of CPNS Basic Training (Latsar) on the attitudes and behavior of Latsar 4 Kerinci Regency participants in 2021. This is confirmed by the t-test values ​​for the 5 ANEKA values ​​variables which show scores below 0, 05. CPNS Latsar activities have a good impact on the potential, attitudes, and behavior of civil servant organizations or agencies.
