Abstract

Indonesia is currently focusing on vocational education and skills improvement to improve the quality of the human resources. The government has also long established several vocational universities, including in South Kalimantan. Therefore, this study seeks to describe the awareness and interest of South Kalimantan Community towards the Banjarmasin Polytechnic. This study aims to find the level of awareness and interest of prospective students towards Banjarmasin Polytechnic, and how to improve the awareness and interest towards Banjarmasin Polytechnic. This study used a quantitative descriptive approach. Data conducted using Online Survey with total sample of 400 people. The respondents were students and parents of SMA/SMK from big regencies/cities in South Kalimantan. The findings indicate that the level of awareness and interests towards Banjarmasin Polytechnic is quite good (between 68%-76%). However, several efforts are still needed to raise awareness and interest of prospective students and parents of students towards the Banjarmasin Polytechnic. The implications of this research are optimizing promotions through social media, establishing collaborations and making visits to high school / vocational schools. In the future, the choice of majors, study programs and curriculum offered should also focus on entrepreneurial skills / business skills in each scientific field.
