The Making Indonesia 4.0 roadmap serves as a reference for strengthening the competitiveness of Indonesia’s manufacturing sector in the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. In parallel, the Society 5.0 concept is gaining traction, encouraging the use of innovations such as the Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), big data, and robotics to address social challenges and enhance quality of life.
To meet these demands, SMK Widiatmika positions itself as a vocational education institution that emphasizes character education, literacy, and the seven 21st-century skills: critical thinking and problem solving; collaboration and leadership; agility and adaptability; initiative and entrepreneurship; effective communication; accessing and analyzing information; as well as curiosity and imagination. Vocational education is expected to establish strong “link-and-match” ties between academia and industry. The curriculum therefore prioritizes job-performance outcomes, aligns with concrete industry needs, and develops the cognitive, psychomotor, and affective domains. Success is measured not only by theoretical knowledge, but also by practical skills and sensitivity to technology-driven workplace developments.
The curriculum at SMK Widiatmika is aligned with the evolving needs of business and industry, grounded in science and technology. Programs include guidance and counseling, extracurricular development, competency (skills) development, character education, and industry placements/field internships (Praktik Kerja Lapangan/PKL). These initiatives prepare learners to be productive and skilled, able to work independently, and ready to be absorbed by business and industry (DU/DI). Partnerships with companies across DU/DI further strengthen competencies and ensure effective link-and-match.
Learning is supported by experienced teaching staff with undergraduate and graduate qualifications, complemented by industry professionals. Conducive facilities—classrooms, buildings, and supporting infrastructure—enable effective teaching and learning at SMK Widiatmika.
