This study investigates teachers' preparation policies and the policy execution in vocational high school in Indonesia. Using a qualitative method, the researcher selected university members who have been involved in teacher preparation programs and or policy making in Indonesia as the participants. The data collection and analysis were undertaken according to research questions focused on the governmental policies and the implementation of teachers' preparation. This result shows that teacher preparation policies in Indonesia were enacted based on the teacher and lecturer law in 2005. Afterward, in 2007, the minister of education upgraded a policy through two regulations, the teacher's qualification and competencies, and teacher certification. To get teacher certificate and incentives from the government, vocational high school teachers should make portfolios and join series of training. This, certainly, effectively encourages many youngsters to become a teacher. The policy of teacher certification was updated and upgraded again by the government through teacher education program through either in-service or pre-service. The teacher preparation policies are conducted by Indonesian government through teacher certification, that focuses on the quantity of certified teachers based on the national standard. Consequently, teachers will face difficulty in creating graduates with high competency standards and high competitiveness in the global market. Teacher quality improvement should be done clearly with the orientation on international standard.

Long-standing gaps of teachers' academic qualifications persist despite changes and developments of educational policies the government has continually been making. The gaps eventually result in a gradual decrease in the quality of vocational school graduates, which has recently caused grave national concern. The decrease is evident in Indonesian vocational students' lack of competitive spirit and skills in the national labor market. In an attempt to find a creative and effective solution to this problem, this paper seeks to explore and describe the educational policies and the implementation of standards by vocational subjects teachers in a developing country and those in a developed county, hoping that it will help vocational school graduates acquire professional qualifications. Using a critical ethnography, in-depth analyses on the professors' commentaries reveal that it is common in most universities in both countries to select vocational teachers by following educational policies in order to establish reliable criteria for qualified teachers in the future. This teacher certification program seems to have positively influenced the welfare of teachers in both countries, but other daring innovations in improving skills and qualifications of teachers are still a great need. ; Dugogodišnji propusti u akademskim kvalifikacijama nastavnika ne nestaju usprkos promjenama i unaprjeđenju obrazovne politike koju vlada stalno izrađuje. Ti propusti u konačnici rezultiraju postupnim smanjenjem kvalitete učenika strukovnih škola, što u posljednje vrijeme izaziva ozbiljnu zabrinutost na nacionalnoj razini. To smanjenje kvalitete manifestira se u činjenici da indonezijski učenici nemaju natjecateljski duh ni vještine na domaćem tržištu rada. S ciljem pronalaska kreativnog i učinkovitog rješenja tog problema, ovaj rad pokušava istražiti i opisati obrazovne politike i provedbu obrazovnih standarda od strukovnih nastavnika u zemlji u razvoju i u razvijenoj zemlji, u nadi da će to pomoći učenicima koji završe strukovne škole u stjecanju stručnih kvalifikacija. Primjenom kritičke etnografije, detaljne analize komentara profesora otkrivaju da je na većini sveučilišta u objema državama uobičajena praksa pri odabiru strukovnih nastavnika ta da se poštuje obrazovna politika kako bi se uspostavili pouzdani kriteriji za kvalificirane nastavnike u budućnosti. Čini se da takav program licenciranja nastavnika ima pozitivan utjecaj na dobrobit nastavnika u objema državama, no još uvijek postoji velika potreba za ostalim smjelim inovacijama bitnima za razvoj vještina i kvalifikacija nastavnika.
