One of the ways to get a link and match between Vocational High School graduates and the working world is by implementing a teaching factory (TEFA). Teaching Factory aims at aligning teaching and training in schools with the needs of modern industrial practices. However, not all schools can implement it optimally, especially those in low-industrial areas. This is one of the reasons why many Vocational High School graduates are not able to compete in the labor market. One of the solutions is to get students’ project assignments based on the potential of their region. Therefore, this study aims to develop a teaching factory model integrated with student's regional potential-based project (SRPP). This research and development (R&D) employs the Borg and Gall model, which consists of four main stages: need analysis, model development, model validation by experts through a focus group discussion and a pilot study, and model evaluation. The results show that the teaching factory model for vocational schools in low-industrial areas is valid and can be widely tested. © (2024), (Insight Society Insight Society). All rights reserved.
