Abstract: Educational Program Based on Local Potential at a Vocational School. This is a descrip- tive-qualitative study implementing an educational program based on local potential at Fisheries Study Programe. The study was carried out at Vocational School II, Bontang. The results show three main is- sues. First, the application of Educational Program Based on Local Wisdoms at the Fisheries Study Program at Vocational School II, Bontang already met the national educational standards, but not able to manage the natural resources of fisheries. Second, the problems surfacing include the lack of support- ing facilities, the lack of interests in entrepreneurship and fishing industry among the alumni, and the unintensive coordination between educational providers and policy makers. Third, the planning for fu- ture improvements include completing the necessary infrastructure, maximizing the potential in coop- eration with the industry, promoting fishery products at important events, improving the competence of the students, participating in local and national level competitions, fostering entrepreneurial spirit by giving entrepreneurship training to the teachers and the students, and organizing industrial practices out- side of East Borneo.
