Abstract: Character education at a higher eduaction institution aims to improve the quality of the implementation and outcomes of education that leads to the achievement of the formation of character and moral values of the students holistically, integratively and proportionally, in line with the competency standard of the graduates. Through character education students are expected to be able to autonomously improve and use their knowledge, study and internalize the values of character and moral values that manifest in their everyday behaviors. Character values applied in higher education, especially in colleges producing teachers, are selected values developed in the implementation of character education, particularly in each department/study program. The core values selected are: honest, intelligent, caring, and resilient. The implementation of the core character values in higher education producing teachers can be integrated using three channels, namely integrated in teaching and learning, management of departments and study programs, and student activities.
