Abstract

The World Economic Forum (WEF), at the end of 2020, has issued a report that one of the most critical skills in the future is creativity. Vocational teachers as central learning facilitators must be able to accommodate a learning atmosphere that supports students' creativity. The integration of creativity skills and the use of technology is necessary, considering that we have entered the era of digitalization of education and industry. On the other hand, students are currently Generation Z and Generation Alpha, which are digital natives. In the field, teachers at Vocational High School (VHS) 1 Probolinggo do not yet fully have a variety of e-learning media development tools that can accommodate the creativity skill needs of their students. The purpose of this community service activity is to train and assist teachers of VHS 1 Probolinggo as one of the Vocational High Schools of Excellence in Office Management and Business Services. Teachers acquire training and assistance to develop learning media and models that accommodate students' creativity skills in the digital era. The analysis results show that after being given training and mentoring, teachers at VHS 1 Probolinggo have skills in developing media and implementing learning models that support student’s creative skills in the digital era. Thus, it is considered capable of supporting government programs in improving the quality of human resources through the Center of Excellence Vocational School (SMK Pusat Keunggulan) program.
