This is a part of the syllabus for all students who enroll under the Faculty of Plantation and Agrotechnology, Universiti Teknologi MARA. The goal of industrial training is to expose the students to the real working conditions. Thus, the research aim is to measure and compare the students' skill sets before and after they completing their industrial training. A quantitative research method used to achieve the research objectives and the data collection conducted among the students after they have completed 6-8 weeks of industrial training in the industry. The primary data collected using questionnaire from 196 samples from diploma and bachelor degree program in the faculty through simple random sampling method. The result found that the average performance of the students before the industrial training is 61.6% of the cognitive (thinking), 62.3% of the psychomotor (skill) and 70.8% of affective (ethic). After completing the industrial training, these three parameters increased to 78.9% of the cognitive, 83.9% of the psychomotor and 84% of affective. Referring to the T-test analysis in SPSS, the finding expected to reveal that there is significance different on the cognitive, psychomotor and affective domain before and after completing industrial training since the p-value is 0.00 less than 0.05. As a conclusion, during industrial training students showed high level of performance achieved, which helped improving their soft skill and competencies also help in reducing the unemployable rate among the graduate students.
