Abstrak

Penelitian ini bertujuan mengeksplorasi proses pengembangan soft skill kewirausahaan sebagai strategi peningkatan kemandirian ekonomi siswa dewasa di Community Learning Center (CLC) Kinabalu, Malaysia. Latar belakang penelitian ini adalah keterbatasan akses pendidikan formal, rendahnya keterampilan non-teknis, dan minimnya kesadaran kewirausahaan di kalangan warga belajar Paket C yang berasal dari keluarga Pekerja Migran Indonesia (PMI). Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan desain studi kasus intrinsik. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara mendalam, observasi partisipatif selama pelatihan, dan analisis dokumen. Proses intervensi dilaksanakan secara daring selama empat hari dengan mengacu pada pendekatan Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) dan prinsip andragogi. Analisis data dilakukan dengan teknik thematic analysis untuk mengidentifikasi pola-pola penguatan kompetensi soft skill meliputi komunikasi efektif, kepemimpinan adaptif, pemecahan masalah kreatif, manajemen diri dan waktu, adaptasi terhadap perubahan, kecerdasan emosional, orientasi hasil, dan networking. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan tiga tema utama: (1) internalisasi nilai-nilai kewirausahaan melalui pembelajaran berbasis pengalaman, (2) transformasi kepercayaan diri menjadi keberanian memulai usaha kecil berbasis sumber daya lokal, dan (3) pemanfaatan media digital sebagai sarana pengembangan jejaring bisnis. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa penguatan soft skill berbasis aset lokal mampu membentuk kesiapan wirausaha pada komunitas migran dewasa, sekaligus menjadi model yang dapat direplikasi pada konteks pendidikan nonformal di wilayah perbatasan atau komunitas rentan lainnya.
