PREPARING PARTICIPANTS FOR ENTERING THE WORLD


PREPARING PARTICIPANTS FOR ENTERING THE WORLD WORK

Abstract: The world of education is a field that is quite complex, because the situation is strongly influenced by the seven main factors, namely Psychology, Sociology, Anthropology, Cultural, Economic, legalistic, and Philosophy. In relation between the world of education with the working world, all parents wish for their children to school continue through to completion. But for many reasons, not all children can attend school. Apparently there is a gap between the goals of education with educational outcomes (Guidelines 1993). To
drawing nea between results and objectives, one possible way is to improve teaching and learning process that is adding subjects "Career Guidance".

Key words: students, working world

Education is one of the very complex social field. It is said that, because this area is influenced by the seven major factor as the foundation of education, namely: Psychology, Sociology, Anthropology, Cultural, Economic, legalistic, and Philosophy (Blackinsten and Robert in Soedomo 1990). Therefore, before discussing more about the world of education, it is necessary first to understand the brief description of the influence of the following to 7.
Educational events partly colored by the psychology of interaction networks, particularly in relation to the business of education is a matter of learning. The degree of mastery of professional educators on the interaction of psychology will determine the success and failure in influencing student learning.
Education institutions influence and are influenced by society. If the move in a dynamic educational institution then the society will move in a dynamic, and vice versa. When viewed from the interests of society as a whole, the main function is as developer cultural education. For the people of Indonesia, which consists of many tribes have their own culture, they will have a pattern of acculturation, the process makes the individual to be able to adjust to the environment. And enculturation, the process of acceptance of foreign cultural elements without losing its own cultural identity. In addition, culture in the home need to be adapted to the culture at the school. The existence of conflict between these two cultures would disrupt the education process. Similarly, the existence of cultural discontinuity, namely children limited her social environment. This will have difficulties to adjust to the environment, especially against the world of work.
In essence of education is a process of transformation of values
​​and culture of one generation to the next generation. Because of that education process will be closely linked to the cultural background of the ongoing educational process (Brooks, in Soedomo, 1990). In this regard we realize that the state of our society is quite diverse. Where diversity is possible will be an obstacle for students' learning process.
To avoid "culture shock", the development of education in its national culture need to be focused on efforts to preserve and develop the noble values
​​of the nation, the values ​​of stimulate power and social institutions in supporting national development processes, to stimulate enthusiasm for growing creative community without ignoring the personality of the nation (Soedomo, 1990).
Education is seen as the economic progress of a community resource. Conversely advancement of education efforts require strong economic support (Unesco, in Soedomo, 1990).
Education must be in line with legislation and education development planning. That is an assumption that is believed truth to guide education toward the goal. According to the 1993 guidelines of our national education goals; improve the quality of Indonesian human. This increase is meant to make man: faithful and devoted to God Almighty, pekeni virtuous noble, personality, independent, advanced, resilient, intelligent. creative, skilled. disciplined, beretos work, professionally responsible, productive, and healthy physical and spiritual. So any educational policy should depart from the philosophy used in designing the curriculum, because it is strongly influenced by educational products educational philosophy adopted.
Now we already know that the context of the education world are simultaneously influenced by 7 basis above education. This means, that any measures taken must first consider the influence of to-7 basis above. Thus, it should not be any policy that clashed with one of these to-7 basis. If the clash, it is not obtained by solving the problem, but it will bring new problems that will increase the complex world of education. So education is not a linear problem that is predictable development, but rather a complex problem. Thus it takes a broad and deep insight in react to it. As disclosed by Fuad Hasan (1992) who reminds us that should in no hurry "to think short cuts" in the world education. This is necessary so as not to cause huge losses.

The gap between objective and Education Results
While this is generally the rate that is considered to obtain a job that is: the Armed Forces, Public Servant or Private, factory workers, and other work that gets a monthly salary (Muslih Usa, 1991). In this case the school must be viewed as an institution that seems to print only the labor. This view is certainly not justified, because according to the guidelines in 1993 the goal of education is to improve the quality of the Indonesian people, namely: faith and devoted to God Almighty, virtuous noble character, personality. independent, advanced, powerful, intelligent, creative, skilled, disciplined, beretos working, responsible and productive professional and physically and mentally healthy. If this goal is reached, it seems the problem of unemployment will be solved by itself. But if formal education is only capable of printing workers (bumh), may have deficiencies in teaching and learning process. Because the learning process is one fiaktor that also determines the quality of learning outcomes.

Introduction When is the World of Work Done
Hope the parents to send their children to completion is good. But keep in mind, that reality, not all graduates of Package A, Package B, Package C, can attend school. And especially graduates Package A and Package C has not met the working age. However, it is certain that the graduates of Package A and Package C will be entering the working age as well. Therefore, in this primary education level, would not hurt if it is introduced to the world of work. So although it is still sitting in the Package A learners can have an idea of
​​what work would be suitable for him to be selected. Although the choice was still unstable, but it means they have started berpikk in adults according to his intellectual development. Thus, meaning that the learners at the level of Package A, Package B and Package C need to be introduced to the world of work. Implementation can be adjusted to the level of intellectual development of children. About how the model introduction to the world of work, can we follow the following discussion.

Introduction Maximizing the World of Work To Educate Participants Equality Program
For the introduction of the working world to students of equality programs to achieve optimal results, the introduction is divided
becoming three levels, namely level of Package A, Package B and Package C
For learners Package A world recognition of this work aims to generate awareness of the work environment. Implementation can be done by way of example, provide the right information is done by way of example, provide appropriate information about the various jobs are often found in his neighborhood, and close look at the atmosphere of people who are working. In this way plus the help of teachers in connecting it with the relevant lesson, then the child will be ingrained sense of honor and respect towards people who work.
For Package B students, the introduction of the world of work aiming to understand more about the world of work. Implementation can be by way of the above plus a discussion of the requirements, skills, and how they should do a good job. Besides itum can also dikakukan by providing opportunities to children to obtain information first-hand exploration of the people doing the work.
For learners Package C, the introduction of the working world and persiapa difokuskn to the orientation that can be done by the learners. At this time the students were given varying information about a variety of jobs, the necessary requirements, how to apply for, and create a cover letter. In addition, those from public schools need additional special ketrampila, which can be used as the stock went into the world of work. For those coming from vocational school provision is deemed sufficient skills.
Maximizing the introduction of the world of work in accordance with this educational level is more beneficial for the child and parent and educational institution. Since its implementation can be adjusted to existing conditions. In addition, the model of delivery can be arranged integrally with the subject or subjects stand alone as a Career Guidance.
According to the opinion of the writer, the introduction of the working world should stand alone as a subject, because it takes time cukupbanyak. It was on the basis that the material is quite a lot, namely information about all kinds of good work that has been done or not you have ever done. This was deemed necessary so that the students have ample knowledge about the world of work. Especially how to understand the existing natural resources around them, that is looking at the possibility of employment opportunities in their own environment. If this can be possible also to reduce the rapid flow of urbanization, so that workers do not accumulate in the urban areas. Because of the importance of the role of introducing the world of work, then the subject of this career guidance should be submitted by the senior tutor, which is relatively more knowledge and experience.

CONCLUSIONS AND ADVICE-SUGGESTIONS
In the world of education we should not rush to think short cuts, because there are many educational foundation as an influential factor. Educational foundation are: psychology, culture, sociology, economics, legalistic, anthropology, and
philosophy connection with education upbringing of children, can be understood if all parents want their children to school continue through to completion. But other alternatives need to be seen, because not all children's experience to continue schooling because of various reasons. Therefore, the learners should also be prepared to enter the working world. Thus, graduates are ready to proceed next to the school is also prepared to enter the working world. It is considered important, because if later on it turns out the child cannot attend school for one thing, children and parents are ready mentally to enter the world of work, thus not too disappointed.Listen

ANTICIPATE KEDALUARSAAN SKILLS PROGRAM GRADUATES OF AN OVERVIEW OF


ANTICIPATE KEDALUARSAAN SKILLS PROGRAM GRADUATES OF AN OVERVIEW OF NON-FORMAL EDUCATION MANAGEMENT OF COMPONENTS 



Abstract: The gap between the world of education to the world of work can be started from the current curriculum or the field. Educational backwardness can be seen from the level of mastery of skills and expertise in conformity with the needs of the working world. The hope is that graduates have mastered the skills and expertise in accordance with the needs of the community. The development of the workforce has led to rapid trend kedaluarsaannya skills program graduates Non-Formal Education. To control kedaluarsaan it should be noted educational principles of Non-Formal Education program skills particularly with regard to curriculum and management of education. 


Key Words: graduate, kedaluarsaan, skills 

Left behind the world of education with community development at its core can be caused by two things. First, it can be caused by a curriculum or educational programs should be implemented.Education programs that have been designed in the form of curriculum is not really based on real needs of society. Nationally accepted curriculum there is a greater tendency towards the emergence of the first cause of this. Each region has its characteristics, the type and level of needs of different communities. With the enactment of a national curriculum, regional differences were neglected so that the probability of the difference between educational programs conducted at the Non-Formal Education program skills with the real needs of society. 
The second factor that can cause tertinggalnya world of education with the needs of the community is a weakness in executive education operational level, the weakness in more practical level caused by management factors, both relating to human resources and non human. Management, in addition to the curriculum, is one of the dominant subsystem for determining the successful implementation of educational level, skills Non Formal Education program. Should any curriculum has been designed, if its implementation is not supported by effective management, the less likely that educational objectives have been set forth that can be achieved completely. 
This paper tries to find an alternative solution to the problem. The discussion focused on management, because in the Non Formal Education program management skills is seen as the most important components that determine the effectiveness of the implementation of Non Formal Education program skills in addition to the curriculum. 

DISCUSSION 
The gap between the world of education Non-Formal Education with the world of work is always characterized by the underdevelopment of Non Formal Education program skills at a rate of growth in the world of work. Backwardness can be seen from two things. The first can be seen at the level of skills of the graduates of Non Formal Education program skills in a particular field of employment required by the world of work. In this educational program on Non Formal Education program skills have been directed in accordance with areas of expertise needed by the world of work. However, given the level of mastery that is absorbed or Non Formal Education program skills through education is not commensurate with the demands of skills or expertise needed by the people who actually work. In other words, the learners have learned the skills needed by the family of working people but the level of depth mastery of skills that are not equivalent to the requirement. 
Second, the lag can be seen from the family-owned expertise or skills are different from the needs of the community. There is a possibility that the level of expertise possessed by the graduate students have reached a level that memadahi, but because it does not match the expertise of the workforce skills needed to pass the gap between the two. Curriculum-oriented past and the present course will usually confronts the graduates with a lag, called this second. Seriously and with an effective method dibelajarkan children to achieve the objectives set out in the curriculum. But despite the good result nonetheless in accordance with the past and no longer relevant to today's what else the future. 
The development of the workforce that continues to drive quickly also leads to the two factors. First day working world increasingly demanding workforce skills are the higher quality, and tend towards the demands of a professional department. Along with that diversity of both areas of expertise that can still be classified with existing working families as well as the emergence of new fields of work also proceeded rapidly. Thus, improvement and renewal in education must be continually performed, both concerning content-related curriculum and management in order to achieve the goals stated in the curriculum. This is necessary for the rate of development of society do not always make educational products become outdated or at least not quickly outdated. 
Many experts have suggested various concepts for product education is always in accordance with community demands. There are certain principles which it is suggested that educational skills Non Formal Education program on an ongoing basis to adapt to the needs of the working world. From a number of principles suggested can be classified in two ways, namely curriculum and management. 
In general terms, this principle can be interpreted as a basis or principle in the form of truth that became the principal basis of reasoning or action.In a more specific sense, the principle is defined as the basic idea that is used as a means of evaluation of the actions that have been implemented or as a guide the actions to come. 
With regard to education skills Non Formal Education programs, many of the principles that need to be considered for Non Formal Education program skills can be more directional, so that educational goals can be achieved effectively and efficiently. If concluded there are nine principles chosen, then grouped into three, (1) the principles selected, and then grouped into three, (1) the principles for the organization, (2) the principles for the administration, and (3) principles Principles for teaching. 
The principles are categorized in the principles for the organization include definitions, functions, requirements and procedures. In more detail the principles that include: First, the educational skills of Non Formal Education programs merupkan part of the overall education program, serves to prepare someone for having the ability to do useful work in society and give the possibility to those who wish to develop such capabilities. 
Second, the education program skills Non Formal Education programs should be based on the needs of individuals and society. For that there should be a torch or research on an ongoing basis regarding the need, especially the local community needs and initiatives; and third, education program participants skills Non Formal Education should always be given the opportunity to obtain information and guidance about work. 
Efficient administration in the education program skills Non Formal Education programs collide at the problems more complex than general education. This happens because the need for greater funds and the need for fitness education skills Non Formal Education program with the parties user labor. Thus, the necessary principles intended primarily related to cooperation with community, education Technical Resource Person, qualified personnel, efficient supervision and teaching. 
First, in terms of cooperation with the community, organizing and planning skills education programs Non Formal Education should involve members of the community. Keterlibatkan This can be through representatives from all walks of life and the background area of
​​expertise residing in the community. Through such involvement is expected of the provisions established for a course skills Non Formal Education programs can be more beneficial and in accordance with the demands of society. 
Secondly, the Technical Resource Persons still have an important role in the education skills Non Formal Education program. Therefore, the Technical Resource Persons or educational personnel skills Non Formal Education programs should be completely competent in their fields. In fact, it is suggested that educational personnel skills Non Formal Education programs have professional qualifications. Personnel that should be prepared through education institutions that have superior facilities and personnel so as to meet the demands of professional qualifications.Finally, supervision of educational skills Non Formal Education program is essential to improving instruction. 
Methods and teaching materials in educational skills Non Formal Education program is very different from general education. The distinction lies in several things, among others: the interests and objectives of Non Formal Education program skills demands of industry, standard achievement and graduate performance, and technological change constantly in the economic order. Some of the following principles will assist the Technical Resource Persons in order to provide best services to the Non-Formal Education program skills in the classroom. 
First, the teaching skills of Non Formal Education programs should be selected and awarded on the basis of what is needed for a job (occuptional needs). Teaching programs should be flexibly defined in the sense: in terms of length of flexible education, flexible to the various needs of individuals, and others. 
Second, the conditions under which teaching should be given in accordance with the conditions demanded by the job significantly. Therefore, Äúreal jobs, Äù is the best laboratory for the education skills Non Formal Education programs.So is the standard of work, should be comparable or even higher than the standard recognized for a line of work. 
Third, teaching skills program PNF should include information and activities designed to protect and preserve human life. 
Besides it is necessary to also consider the following things: First, education should be as wide as possible coverage, for graduates who find work may find place in other employment with the qualification which is adjacent to areas of skills, second, education should be as deep as possible, for future job seekers have adequate qualifications for the job specialization, and a third, backwards-oriented education front as far as possible, so that with the ongoing technological developments do not happen quickly kedaluarsaan qualification. 
In terms of administration and management, the need for equality and perceptions of all involved parties about the meaning, function, requirements and procedures should be applied to the education system skills Non Formal Education program.Community involvement in education administration skills Non Formal Education programs are also an important factor for the success of educational skills Non Formal Education programs. Expertise Technical Resource Persons also need to be constantly upgraded, so supervision of education for Technical Resource Persons will be important needs that can not be circumvented. In addition through its supervision of inservice education, preservice education by teacher education institutions also need to be increased, especially in terms of quality graduates. 
  
Conclusion 
The similarity of perceptions on all parties involved about the meaning, function, requirements and procedures should be applied to the education system skills Non Formal Education program.
