This study aimed to: (1) investigate the readiness of Vocational High School (VHS) students, the schools, and the industry to implement the industrial practicum, (2) describe the implementation of the industrial practicum, and (3) describe the result of the industrial practicum implementation. This study was an evaluation research study using the Countenance Model. The research population comprised all teachers and principals of VHSs, all the industrial practicum instructors, and all Year III VHS students of the building engineering expertise program in Makassar City. The sample was selected using the proportionate stratified random sampling technique. The results showed that VHS students were ready to carry out the industrial practicum. This was supported by their knowledge, basic skills and ability and socialization by the schools. VHSs were ready to implement the industrial practicum. Large- and middle-scale industries were ready to implement the industrial practicum. However, only 75% of smallscale industries were ready to do so. Cooperation between industries, especially small ones, and vocational schools was less satisfactory. A few middle- and largescale industries, on the other hand, were quite good. The students’ activities in the industrial practicum ran well because they were supported by their ability to adapt themselves with the industrial environment. Their basic practical skills were poor. The teachers were also good, indicated by the intensity of their visits to the industries during the industrial practicum. Such visits improved the students’ motivation and supported them. The instructors also performed the activities well, especially in guiding the students during the industrial practicum. The instructors continuously provided guidance to the students before accomplishing assignments and checked the results. The final assessment by the instructors included students’ attendance, discipline, motivation, work quality, initiative, creativity, attitudes, and performance. In the final achievement, most students were in the very satisfactory category and only a few were in the moderate category. Keywords: program evaluation, industrial practicu
