This study aims to develop a work, career, and profession guidebook for Vocational High School students that can be used by teachers as a guide in integrating career guidance into the learning process. The background of the development is based on the challenges faced by teachers in directing students according to their interests and talents, as well as the gap in information about skill needs in the world of work. This study is a research and development (R&D) using the Borg and Gall model and involves teachers and students from the Electronic Engineering expertise program at First State Vocational High School of Yogyakarta . The guidebook was developed through a series of design stages, expert validation, content evaluation, and limited field trials. The feasibility test showed that the guidebook was very feasible to use with a total score of 99.7 (very good category). In addition to teachers, students were also involved in assessing the implementation of the book through their perceptions of how teachers applied the contents of the guide in learning. The results of the trial showed that students gave high appreciation to the implementation of the guide, and teachers considered the guide easy to use and relevant to students' learning and career development needs. In addition to being based on the real needs of classroom learning, the development of this book also accommodates input from the Business World and Industry and alumni to strengthen the relevance of the contents of the guidelines to the demands of the job market. This guidebook is flexible and can be adapted for all expertise programs in vocational schools. This study concludes that the guidebook can be an effective and contextual learning tool in supporting students in determining career directions in a more structured and sustainable manner.
