<![CDATA[The advancement of information technology offers significant opportunities for Micro and Small Enterprises (MSEs) to enhance business management through the adoption of structured Accounting Information Systems (AIS). However, many MSEs continue to face challenges in preparing financial statements that comply with the Financial Accounting Standards for Micro, Small, and Medium Entities (SAK EMKM). This community assistance initiative aims to support a bakery-sector MSE in implementing a SAK EMKM-based AIS to improve financial transparency, accountability, and reporting accuracy. The assistance was delivered through field observations, interviews, and hands-on training sessions with the business owner and employees focusing on the accounting cycle and recording techniques. The results indicate that the adoption of a more structured accounting system enabled the MSE to prepare monthly income statements, equity reports, and statements of financial position more systematically. The program also enhanced the entrepreneur’s financial literacy and supported more informed decision-making. These findings demonstrate that implementing a SAK EMKM-based AIS is effective in strengthening financial governance and promoting business sustainability for MSEs.]]>

<![CDATA[This community engagement program aims to enhance the technical competencies of students in a vocational education institution through the application of Total Station technology for contour measurement. The initiative was designed to bridge the gap between classroom theory and modern field surveying practices by integrating structured training, intensive mentoring, and digital mapping tools. A total of 30 geomatics students participated in the program, engaging in instrument familiarization, field measurement exercises, and data processing using CAD-based mapping software. The training adopted an experiential learning model with a learning-by-doing approach, supported by digital modules and instructional video tutorials. Evaluation results show substantial improvements in student competencies: 85% of participants were able to operate the Total Station independently, 70% processed survey data digitally, and 80% produced contour maps of acceptable quality. The program also generated a digital learning module as a sustainable output. These findings demonstrate that integrating Total Station technology into vocational education effectively improves students’ understanding of topography, spatial data analysis skills, and industry-oriented work readiness.]]>

<![CDATA[Document reproduction services represent an essential segment of micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), supporting administrative needs across communities and educational environments. However, many micro-enterprises in this sector lack effective inventory control strategies, resulting in risks of stock shortages or excess materials. These issues may disrupt operational continuity, reduce efficiency, and affect service quality. This community service program aims to strengthen the managerial capacity of MSME operators by providing practical education on inventory control strategies through simple planning techniques and structured record-keeping. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed through direct observation, interviews, documentation, and educational material delivery. The findings indicate an improvement in participants’ understanding of inventory planning, efficient ordering decisions, and the importance of maintaining routine stock records. Business owners expressed their commitment to implementing simple inventory logs and preparing priority supply lists as initial steps toward more effective stock management. These results suggest that practical education can serve as a valuable intervention to enhance inventory governance among micro-enterprise document service providers.]]>

<![CDATA[Scientific writing is an essential competency for vocational students, enabling them to engage with academic literacy demands and adapt to the evolving expectations of the modern workforce. At SMKN 1 Tana Toraja, students’ scientific writing skills remain limited, as reflected in their difficulties understanding article structure, applying citation techniques, and conducting proper literature searches. This community service program was implemented to address these challenges through structured training combined with continuous mentoring. The program introduced participants to the fundamentals of academic writing, guided them in developing article outlines, provided instruction on identifying credible references, and trained them to use reference management tools such as Mendeley. Students also received step-by-step assistance in refining their drafts until completion. The learning approach emphasized hands-on practice, allowing participants to experience the writing process directly and progressively. Program effectiveness was assessed through pre-test and post-test evaluations, which revealed a 42% improvement in students’ conceptual understanding. Additionally, 78% of participants successfully completed scientific manuscripts that met expected academic standards. The program produced a digital writing module and audiovisual materials that can serve as sustainable learning resources. Overall, this initiative significantly strengthened students’ academic literacy skills and encouraged the development of a productive writing culture within the vocational education environment.]]>

<![CDATA[Poverty is a multidimensional challenge that requires strategic and evidence-based planning. This community engagement initiative aims to strengthen the capacity of a local government institution in developing a data-driven poverty reduction plan through a collaborative and systematic policy-oriented approach. The program involved identifying strategic issues across multiple welfare dimensions, including education, health, consumption, employment, basic infrastructure, and food security. Participatory methods such as focus group discussions, technical workshops, and data validation sessions were applied to produce a comprehensive poverty profile at both macro and micro levels. The findings indicate that the local government faces complex poverty conditions with vulnerable populations concentrated in several areas and persistent gaps in key welfare indicators. The resulting plan outlines targeted interventions, program priorities, resource allocation, and measurable performance indicators for the medium-term planning period. This initiative demonstrates how policy-oriented academic engagement can enhance institutional capacity to formulate more effective, evidence-driven, and accountable poverty reduction strategies]]>
