<![CDATA[Vocational high school graduates in Indonesia face the highest unemployment rates, largely due to deficient employability skills. This study developed and validated the BIDASAN psychoeducational model a culturally responsive intervention rooted in the Minangkabau "Induak Samang-Anak Samang" philosophy to strengthen vocational students' career readiness. Following the ADDIE instructional design model, a needs analysis was conducted with 322 students in West Sumatra, followed by a quasi-experimental trial with 20 students at Vocational secondary education 1 Enam Lingkung. Data were collected using a 63-item validated employability scale and analyzed via paired and independent sample t-tests. Expert validation (85.33%) and practitioner practicality (87%) confirmed the model's high feasibility. The experimental group showed a significant improvement in employability skills (N-Gain 0.38) compared to the control group (N-Gain 0.21). The BIDASAN model effectively bridges the gap between cultural values and professional demands, offering a novel approach for school counselors to reduce graduate unemployment.]]>
