Abstract

This research examines the relationship between training satisfaction, support satisfaction, and employment outcomes in the Global Skills Training Program 2024 in South Sumatra, Indonesia. Training satisfaction refers to participants' evaluations of the content, delivery methods, and instructor effectiveness, while support satisfaction reflects their perceptions of career counseling, job placement services, and institutional support. A quantitative approach was employed, analyzing survey data from 240 participants. Statistical analyses using Jamovi Software included a two-sample t-test for gender-based differences, one-way ANOVA for age group comparisons, and logistic regression to examine the impact of satisfaction levels on employment status. Key findings indicate that training satisfaction significantly improves employment transitions, whereas support satisfaction plays a crucial role in reducing unemployment and self-employment rates. Male participants reported higher support satisfaction than female participants, while age differences were not significant. These results highlight the need for personalized training content, robust post-training support, and equitable access to career resources to enhance employability. From a policy perspective, this study underscores the importance of integrating career counseling, job placement services, and mentorship programs into vocational training initiatives. Training providers should focus on reducing gender disparities in support services and enhancing engagement strategies to ensure effective workforce transitions. These findings contribute to the broader discourse on workforce development and offer evidence-based recommendations to align skills training with labor market needs.

Abstract

Indonesia has implemented the Individual Learning Account system under the name Kartu Prakerja, or Pre-Employment Card, to support workforce development. This study examines its effectiveness by comparing it with South Korea’s Naeil Baeum Card (Tomorrow Learning Card). Despite its role in improving skills, Indonesia’s Individual Learning Account system faces challenges in funding sustainability, eligibility control, participant engagement, and training relevance. Additionally, financial support is provided at a fixed amount, regardless of training type. Using comparative policy and fishbone analysis, this study identifies key differences and best practices from South Korea. The findings highlight that South Korea’s co-funding model, employer contributions, and flexible training mechanisms create a more sustainable system. In contrast, Indonesia’s government-funded model faces financial constraints. This study recommends funding diversification, enhanced eligibility verification, an income-based co-payment system, training-specific financial support, and improved fund validity to enhance Indonesia’s Individual Learning Account system.
