ABSTRACT

Vocational high school (SMK) cooperation with industry is a form of industry support in guaranteeing the quality of education in Indonesia. The program’s objectives include teaching graduates’ quality to meet the industry expectation and can compete in the current job market. This study used literature studies from various research journals and combined them into substantive theories for further discussion. The results stated that cooperation between SMK and industry must be continued and strengthened because technological developments change rapidly and impact the job market demands. The cooperation between Vocational School and industry begins with an MoU and then implementing special programs such as (1) synchronizing or aligning the Vocational School curriculum following the industrial needs, (2) apprenticeships for teachers in the industrial environment that are directly accompanied by competent and qualified instructors/experts from the industry, (3) implementing project-based learning that is linked to teaching factory learning and industrial-class learning, (4) implementing teaching factory learning to provide an authentic work atmosphere for students, (5) establishing industrial classes to strengthen students’ competencies, (6) fieldwork practices for students for 6–12 months in industrial environments, and (7) teaching industries for teachers and participants at school.
