Abstract

Industrial Era 4.0 exposes people to global uncertainty. This condition requires an integrated and comprehensive response to anticipate the emergence of new problems, one of which is the increasing number of unemployment in Indonesia. Recordings of the Central Bureau of Statistics in August 2018 stated that the open unemployment rate was still dominated by vocational high school graduates. One effort to deal with this condition is by equipping students with entrepreneurial competencies. Hopefully after graduation, students are able to have an independent business. This study was conducted to measure the success of learning entrepreneurship subjects and their role in growing students’ intentions in entrepreneurship. This research was conducted at SMK (Vocational Senior High School) 17 YP Selorejo using a quantitative approach with correlational type. The research respondents were students majoring in Commerce, using a full sample of 50 students. The data analysis uses product moment and multiple linear regression analysis. After the data analysis process was carried out, it can be concluded that both partially and simultaneously, entrepreneurship subjects are divided into two variables, namely the students' understanding of material (material understanding) variables and the teaching methods chosen by the teacher significantly influence students’ entrepreneurial intentions.
