Abstract

Many Automotive Engineering vocational school graduates end up working outside their field due to pressing economic needs. They tend to choose available jobs rather than wait for jobs that match their skills. Their families' limited financial situation means they don't have the flexibility to wait for job openings in the automotive industry, especially if those jobs require additional skills they haven't yet mastered. This situation reflects the fact that economic factors are the primary driver of career decisions, even when those decisions are not aligned with one's educational background. To address this issue, various strategies can be implemented. One such strategy is strengthening relationships between schools and industry through link and match programs. This study aims to determine the extent to which automotive engineering competence and the type of job pursued influence the job relevance of vocational high school (SMK) automotive graduates. A quantitative approach was employed using a survey method, and the data were analyzed through simple and multiple regression analysis. The sample consisted of SMK Automotive Engineering graduates in Gunungsitoli who had entered the workforce in 2023–2024. The results showed a significant relationship between automotive engineering competence and the type of job pursued with the job relevance of graduates. Both independent variables made a substantial contribution to the alignment between job and educational background.

Abstract

The application of School-Based Management (SBM) has emerged as a strategic method to enhance education quality, particularly in vocational high schools. This study investigates the influence of SBM implementation on the educational standards at SMK Swasta Pembda Nias. A quantitative approach combined with descriptive analysis was utilized to gather data through interviews, observations, and questionnaires involving principals, teachers, and administrative staff. The findings demonstrate that effective SBM practices significantly improve education quality by ensuring structured curriculum management, optimal human resource utilization, and active involvement from the community and stakeholders. Key factors contributing to success include strong school leadership, community collaboration, and adequate resource allocation. These results underscore the relevance of SBM as a vital strategy for advancing educational quality in vocational schools, particularly in regions with distinctive challenges like Nias.
