Abstract

The development of a Micro-Credential Quality Management System (QMS) aims to ensure that micro-credentials are of high quality and aligned with industry needs. Micro-credentials provide formal recognition of specific competencies acquired through short-term, focused learning, offering an efficient means to address the rapidly evolving labor market and technological landscape. This research adopts a Research and Development (R&D) methodology, involving a preliminary study, system development, pilot testing, and validation, to create a robust QMS framework. The QMS focuses on establishing clear standards, rigorous assessment processes, continuous improvement, and collaboration with industry stakeholders to validate competencies. The pilot testing of the QMS in vocational high schools demonstrated its effectiveness in enhancing the relevance and recognition of micro-credentials. The system ensures that issued credentials are aligned with industry demands, improving graduates' employability and competitiveness. The findings indicate that a well-developed QMS for micro-credentials can address gaps in standardization and ensure that credentials are valid, reliable, and recognized across different sectors. The implementation of the QMS facilitates tailored skill acquisition, lifelong learning, and global recognition, making it a critical tool for enhancing workforce readiness and competitiveness.

Abstract

This study addresses the global shift towards sustainable economies, which requires a workforce with proficiency in green practices. The research develops competency standards for Green Citizen Skills, aimed at enhancing employability in green jobs and responding to the increasing demand for sustainability-focused skills. A mixed-methods approach, including literature reviews, expert consultations, and validation through Delphi methods, was employed to formulate actionable frameworks for integrating Green Citizen Skills into vocational education and training systems. The findings highlight the alignment of key elements such as Unit of Competency, Unit Titles, and Performance Criteria with vocational frameworks, ensuring their relevance and adaptability across both educational and professional contexts. Furthermore, competency components like Range of Variables and Critical Aspects are connected to sustainability principles, resource efficiency, and active community engagement, promoting a holistic approach to green job readiness. This study emphasizes the importance of bridging the skills gap between educational outputs and industry demands, fostering a workforce capable of contributing to sustainable development goals. The developed standards provide practical tools to enhance green job preparedness, empowering individuals to support economic, social, and environmental sustainability. Ultimately, this research contributes to the creation of a skilled workforce equipped to drive the transition to a more sustainable global economy.

Abstract

This This research aims to address the gap between the competencies required by the organic farming sector and the skills provided by educational institutions in Indonesia. By mapping occupations within the Indonesian Qualification Framework (IQF) and using the Rapid Assessment Process (RAP) along with the Regional Model Competency Standard (RMCS), the study identifies key roles and competencies necessary for the industry, ranging from entry-level workers to advanced specialists. The findings suggest that current curricula fail to integrate advanced technologies and practical skills training needed in organic farming. The study proposes curriculum enhancements that incorporate sustainable farming practices, biochar technology, and entrepreneurial education to align with industry demands. A strategic framework is also introduced to address the generational gap in the sector by modernizing the perception of farming and attracting younger talent through digital engagement and innovative educational approaches. The research highlights the importance of bridging the competency gap and fostering a skilled workforce capable of driving sustainable agricultural practices, ultimately strengthening the organic farming sector and ensuring its long-term viability.

Abstract

This study aims to develop the first occupation map for Marketing Management aligned with the Indonesian Qualification Framework (IQF). It responds to the persistent gap between higher education outcomes and industry skill requirements, particularly in digital marketing, data analytics, and strategic innovation. Using the Rapid Assessment Process[A1] [A2] (RAP) through in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, and document analysis, the research identified 47 distinct occupations spanning from entry-level roles such as Retail Assistant to senior executive positions like Chief Marketing Officer. The findings reveal that most occupations have yet to be supported by competency standards, highlighting substantial misalignment between educational programs and workforce expectations. This gap underscores the urgency of embedding industry-driven competencies into curricula and developing flexible training and certification pathways. The occupation map provides a strategic framework for policymakers, educational institutions, and industry stakeholders to redesign curricula, guide recruitment, and shape professional development initiatives. By systematically integrating marketing occupations into the IQF, this research contributes a pioneering reference for Indonesia that strengthens graduate employability, supports workforce planning, and enhances global competitiveness in line with ASEAN Mutual Recognition Arrangements (MRA) and the World Economic Forum's call for future-ready skills.

Abstract

The gap between educational outcomes and industry needs in operations management has become increasingly apparent, highlighting a pressing need for alignment to enhance workforce readiness and national competitiveness. This study aims to identify key competencies required in operations management, map them within the framework of the Indonesian Qualification Framework (IQF), and propose recommendations for aligning educational curricula with industry demands. A qualitative research method was employed, involving literature reviews and expert interviews from both academia and industry sectors to gather data on essential skills, knowledge areas, and role progression in operations management. The findings reveal a comprehensive mapping of occupations within operations management, aligned with the IQF, detailing specific competency standards across different qualification levels—from entry-level to executive roles. The research emphasizes the importance of standardized competency frameworks, industry-relevant curriculum development, stakeholder collaboration, and continuous feedback mechanisms to ensure educational programs remain responsive to evolving market needs. By closing the gap between what is taught and what is required, the study contributes to improving graduate employability and the overall effectiveness of the education-to-employment pipeline in Indonesia. The implications of this research are significant for policymakers, educators, and industry stakeholders in fostering a more integrated, agile, and future-ready workforce. Further studies are recommended to conduct sector-specific analysis and longitudinal assessments of the impact of IQF integration on graduate performance and career progression.

Abstract

This study addresses the gap between education systems and labor market demands by developing a validated unit of competency titled “Research and Develop Occupational Standards.” Using a Research and Development (R&D) methodology alongside the Regional Model Competency Standards (RMCS), the study generated three main outcomes: a validated competency unit, a replicable model integrating job classifications, occupational standards, curriculum, and certification, and five policy recommendations for integrating these standards into National Qualification Frameworks (NQFs). The research emphasizes the need to transition from experience-based recruitment to skills-based hiring, addressing the global challenge where only 34% of employers apply competency-focused practices (World Economic Forum, 2023). The study’s findings also contribute to aligning educational outcomes with labor market needs, thereby enhancing employability and ensuring that qualifications remain relevant amidst the digital transformation and the growing demand for sustainability-related skills. The study’s implications are far-reaching, providing a framework for policymakers, education providers, and industry stakeholders to improve workforce competency and support lifelong learning. Future research should explore digital tools, such as AI and blockchain, to enhance the scalability and real-time responsiveness of labor market skills and qualifications.
