Data were collected through in-depth interviews with a number of UHAMKA key informants and written documents related to character education. The research results show that UHAMKA has developed a character education model through the AIKA curriculum. This AIKA curriculum has been formulated in such a manner with systematic management from the aspects of policies, contents and organization so that it can be referred to as a model.
