This man from Makassar, Indonesia has earned 32 academic and non-academic titles over 21 years. Wenlin Kusuma is actually Welin Kusuma, S.T., S.E., S.Sos., S.H, S.Kom., S.S., S.Ap., S.Stat., S.Akt., S.I.Kom., S.I.P., M.T., M.S.M., M.Kn., RFP-I, CPBD, CPPM, CFP, Aff.WM, BKP, QWP, CPHR, ICPM, AEPP, CBA, CMA, CPMA, CIBA, CBV, CERA, CSA, ACPA. Now that’s a man with a lot of achievements, and a lot of titles appended to his name. Kusuma has no intentions of stopping the addition of both academic and non-academic titles, as learning is a hobby for him. Vice has the details:
He started his higher education journey in 1999 at the age of 18 and hasn’t stopped since. His first degree was in Industrial Engineering at Surabaya University, located in Indonesia’s second-largest city.
“University is a hobby for me, I truly enjoy learning. I’m certain that by going to university, I will gain knowledge that is useful to me in a practical sense,” Kusuma told CNN Indonesia.
Not all of Kusuma’s certifications were earned through a university; he also received professional certifications in various fields. In total, he has 11 Bachelor’s degrees, three Master’s degrees, and 18 professional certifications.
When asked about how he manages his time, Kusuma said he once took one degree course in the morning, one at night, one on the weekends, and one exclusively online.
