Abstract

UKK is an evaluation instrument in vocational high school (Sekolah Menengah Kejuruan/SMK) education used to measure students’ competency achievement in accordance with the needs of the business and industrial sectors. This study aims to describe the perceptions of students in the Culinary Expertise Program regarding the implementation of UKK. The study employed a quantitative approach with a descriptive survey method. The respondents consisted of 19 graduates of the Culinary Expertise Program at SMK Tunas Pembangunan who had participated in UKK. Data were collected online using a closed-ended questionnaire consisting of 24 statement items with a four-point Likert scale. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, including frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation. The results showed that, in general, students’ perceptions of the implementation of UKK were in the high category, with a mean score of 3.21. The indicator with the highest mean score was the alignment of UKK with the needs of the culinary industry (M = 3.32), while the lowest indicator was industry involvement in UKK assessment (M = 2.93). The findings indicate that the implementation of UKK is considered to be aligned with industry needs and supports students’ work readiness, although industry involvement in the implementation and assessment of UKK still needs to be improved.

Abstract

The global workforce’s rapid evolution and the complexities of Industry 4.0 necessitate a paradigm shift in Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET). Modern institutions are required to produce graduates who possess not only specialized practical skills but also robust non-technical competencies to navigate unpredictable professional environments. Despite the emphasis on workforce readiness, a significant research gap persists in contextualizing general TVET competencies into specific, actionable assessment frameworks for niche professions, such as the cook helper role in the culinary industry. This study aims to bridge this gap by conducting a qualitative Systematic Literature Review (SLR) of 30 peer-reviewed articles to identify core technical and non-technical competency variables. The findings reveal that while hard skills—such as culinary technique mastery, food safety, and hygiene—remain foundational, soft skills like adaptability, resilience, and effective communication are equally decisive for long-term career sustainability. This study successfully adapts these general TVET variables into specific, measurable indicators for cook helpers, emphasizing procedural precision and adherence to industry standards. Furthermore, the proposed assessment framework integrates work-based, interpersonal, and behavioral evaluations, offering a holistic measurement tool for SMK students. The study concludes that assessment frameworks in vocational education must transition from product-oriented testing to authentic, performance-based evaluations, particularly when implemented within Teaching Factory ecosystems.

Abstract

The phenomenon of job mismatch is one of the challenges in the development of vocational education and training because it indicates a discrepancy between the competencies possessed by graduates and the requirements of the jobs they hold. This situation can affect the effectiveness of training in preparing a workforce that meets the needs of industry, business, and the workforce (IDUKA). This study aims to analyze job mismatch in non-formal vocational training based on the results of a tracer study of alumni from the Rumah Gemilang Indonesia Training and Course Institute (LKP). The study employs a quantitative approach with a descriptive design. Data were collected through a tracer study using an online questionnaire involving 72 alumni of the Rumah Gemilang Indonesia Training Center. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive statistics, including frequency, percentage, and mean. The results indicate that the majority of alumni have entered the workforce, with 38.9% working in fields aligned with their training and 27.8% working in fields not aligned with the training they received. The indicator with the highest average score was “training that helps prepare for employment or entrepreneurship” (4.43), while the lowest-scoring indicator was “discrepancies between training content and the requirements of current jobs” (3.06). The research findings indicate that non-formal vocational training has made a positive contribution to improving graduates’ work readiness; however, there are still signs of a job mismatch, as evidenced by the proportion of graduates working outside their field of training, the need for additional training, and the demand for new competencies after entering the workforce. Therefore, the results of the tracer study should be utilized as a basis for program evaluation through curriculum updates, strengthened collaboration with industry partners, and enhanced practice- and technology-based learning to improve the relevance of graduates’ competencies to labor market needs.

Abstract

Choosing a vocational specialization is an important educational decision that can shape students’ future competencies and career trajectories. For junior secondary school (SMP) students preparing to enter vocational high school (SMK), the choice of specialization needs to consider the alignment between their interests, aptitudes, academic capabilities, and the characteristics of the selected vocational field. However, parents may face limitations in career literacy, which can hinder their ability to provide appropriate and evidence-based guidance. This community service program was designed to strengthen the career literacy of parents and junior secondary students in Kelurahan Jatinegara Kaum, East Jakarta, by broadening their understanding of vocational program characteristics and supporting the identification of appropriate matches between students’ interests and aptitudes and the vocational programs offered by SMKs. The program employed a participatory career guidance model implemented through seven sequential stages: needs assessment, baseline assessment, career literacy workshops, RIASEC-based interest assessment, interest-to-vocational-program mapping, parent-student decision-making support, and program evaluation. Data were obtained from pre-test and post-test instruments, interest inventories, observations, and reflection sheets, and were subsequently analyzed using descriptive analysis and paired-sample statistical testing. The findings demonstrated a substantial improvement in parents’ knowledge and career-related insights, as indicated by an increase in the mean score from 2.13 at the pre-test stage to 3.48 at the post-test stage, representing a 63.4% improvement. The mapping process further revealed that 75% of students’ interest profiles showed a strong alignment with their selected vocational programs. In addition, the role of parents evolved from primarily determining their children’s educational choices toward functioning as partners in their children’s career development and mentoring. Overall, the program demonstrated potential as an effective and replicable model for supporting families during the transition from SMP to SMK, with its long-term impact strengthened through sustained parent-child communication and continued collaboration between families and schools.

Abstract

Praktik Kerja Lapangan (PKL) merupakan salah satu bentuk pembelajaran pada pendidikan kejuruan yang bertujuan menjembatani kesenjangan antara kompetensi lulusan Sekolah Menengah Kejuruan (SMK) dengan kebutuhan dunia industri. Namun, penelitian terdahulu umumnya berfokus pada dampak PKL terhadap kompetensi atau kesiapan kerja, sementara mekanisme pertimbangan keputusan siswa dalam menerima rekomendasi kerja. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memahami bagaimana pengalaman PKL, kompetensi yang dinilai industri, dan rekomendasi kerja menjadi pertimbangan siswa dalam mengambil keputusan menerima rekomendasi kerja sebagai bagian dari proses pengembangan karir. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan desain studi kasus tunggal yang melibatkan sembilan informan, terdiri atas lima siswa SMK, tiga guru pembimbing PKL, dan satu pembimbing industri yang dipilih secara purposive sampling. Kasus penelitian berfokus pada fenomena pembentukan keputusan karir siswa setelah memperoleh rekomendasi kerja dari industri berdasarkan pengalaman PKL. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara semi-terstruktur dan studi dokumentasi, kemudian dianalisis menggunakan model analisis interaktif Miles, Huberman, dan Saldaña dengan bantuan NVivo 12 Pro melalui tahapan open coding, axial coding, dan generic coding. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pengalaman PKL berkembang melalui lima tahapan, yaitu asimilasi, adaptasi terhadap lingkungan kerja, eksplorasi, internalisasi, dan apresiasi. Pengalaman tersebut membentuk hard skills dan soft skills yang menjadi dasar penilaian pembimbing industri dalam memberikan rekomendasi kerja. Selanjutnya, rekomendasi kerja menjadi konteks yang mendorong siswa mempertimbangkan self-efficacy, outcome expectations, dan interest dalam proses pengambilan keputusan untuk menerima rekomendasi kerja dari industri. Penelitian ini menghasilkan konsep pembentukan rekomendasi kerja melalui pengalaman PKL yang memperluas penerapan Experiential Learning Theory dan Social Cognitive Career Theory dalam konteks pendidikan kejuruan, serta memberikan implikasi bagi sekolah dan industri dalam meningkatkan kualitas penyelenggaraan PKL.
