<![CDATA[In a decade, the 4.0 industry requires improving their employees, especially for freshly graduated employees. Both hard skills and soft skills must be improved. The Computers and Informatics Engineering Department at Bandung State Polytechnic has a software project subject in their curriculum that adapted the Project-Oriented Problem Based Learning (POPBL) method to improve them. It can give the skills experience that the industry needed, especially soft skills for students who act as the software engineering team in this subject. But, after the spread of covid-19, soft skills learning with POPBL must use the online learning platform. The POPBL must be designed with the online learning framework. Based on industrial needs, each student's soft skills are problem-solving, teamwork, responsibility, communication, hard work, and discipline.
