The results of this research show that the implementation of the innovative field program at the Medan City Employment Service is already running at a good stage but there are still several shortcomings that need to be improved. When analyzed using the Van Meter and Van Horn implementation model on standard indicators and policy targets, several obstacles were found, such as instructors who were less professional and training participants who were not serious. In terms of policy resources, this program is supported by quality human resources, funding originating from the APBN and APBD, as well as facilities and infrastructure that need to be improved. Communication between organizations is carried out in collaboration with the Medan City Government, but there needs to be a special website that provides information about this program.

Implementers tend to be divided in their opinions regarding program socialization methods. The economic, social, and political environment influences the implementation of this program, including the no-fee policy, challenges resulting from the pandemic, and political and budgetary support. | en_US |
