Abstract

The mismatch between the skills offered by the vocational education institution and the needs of the industry leads to the high unemployment in Indonesian. It contradicts with the initial aim of the vocational education which is to decrease the number of the unemployment in Indonesia. One of the solutions to overcome the problem is by having partnership between vocational education institutions. Therefore, this paper aims to compare the model of partnership with industry in USA University and Indonesian universities. 20 respondents were involved in this study and thematic analysis was used to analyse the data. The results showed that main differences of the partnership model are: 1) in identifying the skill demands, USA universities focused on the feedback of the curriculum. While, the Indonesian universities analysed the skill of the graduates, 2) in supporting the development, Indonesian universities preferred a partner which could develop their infrastructure. While, the USA universities chose a partner which could build their capacity, 3) a company which could employ many workers in Indonesia. While, a company which could affect the image of the university is more preferable in USA.
