The alignment with industry requisites is imperative for streamlining industrial operations efficiently and effectively. However, the current SMK curriculum lacks synchronization with the dynamic industrial landscape, raising concerns about its relevance. Hence, there is a pressing need to prioritize the development of the SMK curriculum. This article employs a systematic literature review method to gather data comprehensively. Literature analysis entails scrutinizing pertinent sources to garner insights into specific subjects. The study seeks to comprehend existing literature, research inquiries, and variables.
