Workplaces need competent and efficient workers; therefore, vocational schools have to fulfill these needs. The graduates’ competencies are based on the curriculum, so the vocational schools must develop a strategy to improve the curriculum for achieving the competency needs of workplaces. The objective of this research is to provide the strategy in developing the curriculum based on workplace competencies. This study used qualitative approach and interaction methods to construct a strategy to develop the curriculum based on workplace competency.
