This research aims to gain an overview of the evaluation results and the many challenges to implementing machining competency test certification (CTC) in Vocational High Schools (VHS). The research approach to evaluating this program is a qualitative method using the analysis of Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS). The program evaluation design in this study uses the Assessment Evaluability and Performance Monitoring (AEPM) model, which has four evaluation components: Context, Inputs, Activities, and Performance Monitoring. The subjects involved in data collection through the distribution of questionnaires of five VHS in the Special Capital Region of Jakarta. The technique of determining all subjects using the Purposive Sampling technique. The results showed the level of effectiveness of the implementation of the machining CTC program. Some dimensions need to be strengthened, especially for the “less and “very lacking” category. Finally, the approach presented in this research using the AEPM model is a step forward in the analysis of the CTC program. This approach can easily be replicated in other countries with similar aims as this research.
