Met at the location of the event, Nova, who is from Bekasi, admitted to being involved in the meeting after becoming a participant in the Pre-Employment Card in 2021. He took an entrepreneurship class to start the coffee business he aspired to.

"I joined last year because I wanted to have my own business in the cafe sector. I heard that in Pre-Employment I was given free training, so I registered and it turned out that I passed," Nova said, as reported by Antara.

The 25-year-old woman hopes that the program will continue to run because it helps job seekers to improve their abilities and also those who want to become entrepreneurs by providing the training needed to start a business, according to their interests.

The same thing was said by Dian, who came from the same group as Nova. According to him, the Pre-Employment Card Program has helped her, who is a housewife, learn to start entrepreneurship.

He was also grateful for the incentives he received after participating in the training provided in the program.

The Pre-Employment Card Program was launched by President Jokowi in 2019, which aims to improve the quality of human resources.

Within two years of its implementation, the Pre-Employment Card has reached its 32nd wave with more than 12.8 million beneficiaries spread across 514 districts/cities throughout Indonesia.
