Abstract
The 2013 Curriculum Vocational School Assessment Guide published by the Directorate of Vocational School Development in 2015 states that remedial participants are not only determined based on test scores. Remedial is determined based on knowledge scores, skills scores, attitude scores, and level of learning difficulty. That is why this decision support system application was created. This decision support system was created using a combination of the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal (TOPSIS) methods to help determine remedial students. After knowing the remedial participants, the type of remedial learning is determined according to the remedial percentage. The research results show that the use of a decision support system has an influence in determining the number of students who must take remedial treatment. The use of the AHP TOPSIS method reduced the number of remedial student participants by 14.28%. The remedial percentage which was initially 52.4% became 38.1%. This type of remedial learning, which initially requires re-doing classical learning, changes to giving special assignments and exercises.
