Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to review the vocational revitalization program for improving the skills of students in special education schools. The government's enthusiasm in improving the quality of vocational education in special education is based on the low number of special needs students who have difficulty in following the learning process due to physical, emotional, mental, social abnormalities such as blind, deaf, mentally disabled, disabled and autistic to continue their education higher education. Improving the quality of special education graduates who will both meet the labor market, and the needs of the company in finding prospective workers who have skills and have work experience that is in line with the chosen career and professional sectors. Improving the quality of special education graduates also provides independence for special education graduates after graduating from education. Most of the teachers in special education schools are not from a skills background, so this hinders the improvement of competence for special education students. In the basic principle of education in the implementation of vocational education there are three basic principles that need to be considered, namely students, programs, and processes. Vocational Revitalization Program is a government policy that is expected to increase teacher capacity which will also affect students in the field of skills.
