Populasi penelitian adalah seluruh guru pembimbing prakerin dan kepala sekolah, instruktur prakerin di industri, dan seluruh siswa kelas XI program keahlian teknik bangunan di Kota Makassar yang telah melaksanakan prakerin. Penarikan sampel menggunakan ProportionateSampling. Teknik pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan angket, pengamatan, dan dokumentasi, sedang analisis data dengan teknik statistik deskriptif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa siswa SMK siap melakukan praktik kerja industri. Hal itu didukung oleh tingkat pengetahuan siswa, sosialisasi yang dilakukan oleh sekolah, dan kemampuan keterampilan dasar siswa yang baik. SMK siap melakukan praktik kerja industri. Industri pelaksana prakerin siap melakukan praktik kerja industri terutama pada industri golongan besar dan menengah, sedang industri golongan kecil hanya 75%. Kerja sama yang terbangun antara industri dan sekolah masih kurang baik terutama pada industri-industri golongan kecil, sedang golongan menengah dan besar sudah cukup baik walaupun masih sangat terbatas. Kata kunci: kesiapan, praktik kerja industri, program studi keahlian teknik bangunanTHE READINESS IN IMPLEMENTING THE INDUSTRIAL WORK EXPERIENCE PROGRAM OF THE VOCATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL CIVIL ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT IN MAKASSAR CITY Abstract:This study was aimed to describe the readiness of the vocational high school students, the schools and the industries to implement the industrial work experience program. This study belongs to a survey method. The population consisted of all teachers supervising the industrial work experience program and principals, all instructors in industries, and all grade XI students in the civil engineering program in Makassar City joining the industrial work experience program. The sample was drawn using the proportional stratified sampling technique. The data were collected using questionnaires, observations, and documentation, while the data were analyzed descriptively.

<p>Papua New Guinea is among other developing countries that are faced with a critical shortage in human resources in health, specifically nurses, and rural areas are the most affected. Initially, and perhaps unsurprisingly, there were only two relevant studies that directly related to Papua New Guinea in this area based on the literature search. The first of these two studies was focused on nurses and the social aspect of rural motivation compared to the other which was focused on rural health professionals in general. Nevertheless, other research studies were eventually found from other developing countries such as certain Pacific, African and Latin American countries that served to assist in focusing the research on the chosen topic.  This descriptive-exploratory study set out to explore the sustaining factors that influenced existing nurses to remain (or otherwise) in their work in Papua New Guinea’s rural areas. As such, the study involves 10 rural nurses with over two years of rural work experience in two different organisations; government and church. The interviews were semi-structured and were designed to explore the motivating factors for rural nurses and how any challenges, or demotivating factors, were overcome. The interviews were conducted in the common spoken language Tok Pisin which was translated into English, transcribed and analysed thematically.  Overall the study found that rural nurses are disadvantaged because they struggle with limited resources to deliver effective health care, and they also face several personal challenges which are often overlooked. The main findings are categorised under two major themes, 1) safety and 2) socioeconomic, and each are explored by further exploration of the themes and sub-themes that are evident in both. The implications of this study are examined, including recommendations, to develop policies that are designed to address the ongoing needs of rural nurses in Papua New Guinea.</p>
