To support the progress of vocational education in the 21st century, this study aims to analyze students' problem-solving abilities during fieldwork practice.

The instrument consists of 20 statement items with answer options in the form of a linear scale and 1 item of answer options in the form of checkboxes. The results showed that the percentage of students' problem-solving ability was in the very high category of 6,4%, the high category of 28,5%, the medium category of 45,6%, the low category of 15,7%, and the very low category of 3,9%. This study also revealed that of the 8 skills required during the PKL, the "ability to analyze information carefully before communicating" had the highest percentage of 23,65% as the first choice of students to improve. The second choice is "the ability to speak in public and communicate with various parties," at 22,86%.
