The vocational school program with an Islamic Boarding School-based approach is an initiative aimed at cultivating well-rounded and nationally-oriented young generations who possess intellectual, emotional, spiritual, and kinesthetic/vocational intelligences. This is achieved by integrating vocational education with the principles of Islamic boarding schools, with the goal of producing competent graduates who excel not only in science and technology but also in their faith, piety, and character.
