Abstract
Vocational education will provide hands-on experience skills not only to get a job but also to create jobs. Currently, very few job opportunities are available to vocational school graduates. This is due to the lack of communication and collaboration needed between schools and industry. Therefore, school mapping research aims to identify website-based batik skills vocational education. The researcher used a web mapping-based content analysis method to collect data about batik vocational schools and the batik industry. After selecting and compiling all the data, the researcher analyzed it. It was found that out of 32 provinces in Indonesia, there are 27 provinces that have majors in batik expertise and 5 provinces that do not. Then, out of 27 provinces, only 5 provinces have vocational schools that cooperate with the batik industry. In this case it can be said that the distribution of schools, especially facilities, has not been fulfilled. So that with the community meeting, they can easily find out information on developments and vocational schools majoring in batik expertise can get more attention so that vocational schools throughout Indonesia can have the same facilities and can develop well to provide other alternatives for graduates to be creative.
