ABSTRACT

This research raises the topic of comparing the implementation of non-formal education and training after the COVID-19 pandemic to encourage the national economy through economic recovery policies on the concerning issue with the unemployment rate in the Southeast Asia region. The aim is to compare the implementation of non-formal education and training for workers in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Singapore which have been organized by the national government, namely: "Kartu Prakerja" from Indonesia, "SkillsFuture" from Singapore and "Upskill" from Malaysia. Each country has a similar background in handling educational programs after the COVID-19 pandemic, but it has differences in implementing the workforce programs. A qualitative approach is used with data sources obtained through literature studies in the form of official documents, websites, press releases from state governments and journals based on their relevance. Data analysis was carried out comparatively. The results of the research show that the implementation of non-formal education and training includes two aspects of management; organizing and implementing, each country has differences and similarities adjusted to the beneficiaries and the actualization of non-formal education and training programs that have been carried out in the country.
