“The Importance on Advancing Vocational Education to Meet Contemporary Labor Demands”

The Vocational Education Program on Universitas Indonesia invites academia, researchers, policy-makers, registered training organisations, industry, schools and university students, employer groups, education and training authorities, and business associations to the 2nd International Conference on Vocational Higher Education (ICVHE) 2017. This conference discussed the recent improvement and challenges on vocational education and how it has affected the implementation of vocational education in the country and beyond. It provides a platform for research which can inform these deliberations to be presented and debated and for delegates to explore ways in which these insights from research might be translated into policy and actions which will contribute to advancing vocational education in Indonesia and other countries.
