Project to Strengthen the Profile of Pancasila Students to Work, Continue Studies, Entrepreneurship at SMK Negeri 1 Dendang

Abstract

The Pancasila student profile strengthening project provides an opportunity for students to "experience knowledge sharing" as a process of strengthening character as well as an opportunity to learn from the surrounding environment. Vocational High School (SMK) is an educational unit that prepares students to be ready to work in certain fields. Guidance for students before they complete their education at school is a determining factor for students' readiness to support their career readiness. This study uses mixed methods with a sequential explanatory design, with data collection techniques using questionnaires, interviews, observations, case studies, documentation, and focused discussions. The results of this study show that students of SMK Negeri 1 Dendang have a good understanding of the career options available in making decisions about work programs. The supporting factor of this project is the high interest of level 12 students to understand and improve their self-competence before they complete their education at school. The conclusion of the implementation of this project went well and in accordance with the expected evidence, as evidenced by the readiness of students to be ready to work, continue their studies, and be entrepreneurial.
