This research is conducted to formulate an education quality assurance management model, which focused on vocational schools or SMK.

Quality assurance is an important aspect to improve in education, especially in SMK, which is expected to be the leading efforts to increase human resources. Therefore, a special management model form of quality assurance toward SMK is needed. Holistic Skills Education (HOLSKED) is one of its manifestations which is designed to assure the quality of SMK in a simple way by doing six steps. They are Pre-entering Behavior, Entering Behavior, Process, Assessment, Evaluation, and Output which included in the early process during the student's application until the process of assuring students after half a year of graduation. This research applied Research and Development approach. The method used in the data collection process is qualitative and quantitative ones. The number of the samples is four SMK in which each has sixty-one people. Three SMKs are used as the samples for the initial test, while the rest is for the model test.There are four ways used in the data collection techniques, they are documentation, observation, interview, and questionnaire. HOLSKED resulted in some improvement of SMK's quality: HOLSKED could change the mind-stream of the majority of students to be more creative and productive, students do not depend on the available facilities, but on the contrary they try to find the way to solve the lack of the facilities at their school, and normative and adaptive materials 219 Erni Munastiwi / Procedia -Social and Behavioral Sciences 204 ( 2015 ) 218 -230 are presented more practically, not theoretically, by the teachers. HOLSKED is an education quality assurance management model which is constructed scientifically because it is a model of quality assurance for SMK. In 1999, the National Education Department launched a supplement of Competency Based Training (BCT), in which it is an amalgamation of knowledge, skills and attitudes. The SMK graduates should have competency related to computer and intrepreneurship. The first competence is to anticipate the era of globalization, while the second is to develop the sipirits of entreprenurship which can create the jobs. The results of this model prove effective, especially to develop the mindset and awareness of the students to gain special expertise. This model can encourage vocational students to develop entrepreneurial ideas so that graduates are capable of not only working in a company but also creating their own businesses. The aspects developed through this model are mindset, independence, problem solving, innovation, and entrepreneurship.
