The research method used in this research is descriptive qualitative with a case study approach. The conclusion of this research is that Playgroup managers show that: (1) managers need serious efforts, by mobilizing their resources, including energy, costs, time, funds and conducting intensive mentoring to fellow Play Group institution that have successfully achieved accreditation institutions, and (2) the obstacles experienced by managers are the limited ability to fill in accreditation data online, the lack of order in documenting the implementation of Play Groups, limited operational funds for the institution and not fully understand the contents of the National Education Standards document
