The vocational education on agrifood in Indonesia (TVET) is in need of re-adjustment, as borne out by the relative lack of interest by prospective students and the low numbers of diploma holders reaching the labour market in contrast with good opportunities of work in the sector. This position is worsened by the rising unemployment figures in this age group. The national government, up to the highest level, has decided to urge change in the educational system. In order to increase student numbers, agricultural education programs need to become more attractive and fit the labour market. Although the current SMK’s have accredited programs, a good percentage of the curriculum is spent on general courses, which limits time for true agricultural/food programs. The SMK teaching factories for student’s practical education often lack basic equipment. Furthermore, TVET education turns to classical teaching, based on general certification. Despite the fact that SMK’s sign MoUs with industry, these companies are not involved in formulating curricula standards and learning outcomes.
