Abstract

Fishermen operating in coastal areas tend to face the problem of long-term poverty. Fish sales activities carried out in the long term have not been able to boost the welfare of coastal fishermen. One of the strategies that can be done so that the business not only survives but also experiences growth is to compile bookkeeping. In their business, not all fishermen do bookkeeping due to limited knowledge. Therefore, this community service activity aims to provide education and bookkeeping training for fishermen and fishmongers in Seri Hamlet, Nusaniwe District, Ambon City. Fifteen fishermen and seven fishmongers attended the activity. The service method uses the Service Learning (SL) method. There are two stages in this SL method. The first was education about the importance of bookkeeping for business. The second stage was training in bookkeeping. The activity results showed that after education and training, participants experienced increased knowledge about the bookkeeping model as measured by indicators such as identifying transactions, recording transactions, and preparing profit and loss statements. Before participating in the activity, the average score of participants was 89, and after participating in the activity, the average score was 95. This shows that the bookkeeping training has improved fishermen's knowledge of bookkeeping.
