The Implementation of a Competency-Based Training Program at the Regional Technical Implementation Unit of the Job Training Center Dinas Tenaga Kerja dan Transmigrasi Sukabumi Regency

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of competency-based training programs at the Regional Technical Implementation Unit (UPTD) of the Vocational Training Center under the Manpower and Transmigration Office of Sukabumi Regency. This research uses a qualitative descriptive approach with data collection through interviews, observation, and documentation. The analysis uses the implementation model of Edward III with four indicators: communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure. The findings indicate that competency-based training programs have been implemented quite well in terms of communication and available resources. However, challenges remain in disposition, such as the commitment of trainers and participants, as well as bureaucratic structures that still require coordination improvements between institutions. This study highlights the importance of strengthening the institutional capacity of vocational training centers, policy integration at the local level, and sustainable monitoring mechanisms to ensure that training outcomes effectively reduce unemployment.
