improvement. This can be done through the models development of equivalency programs. The models of equivalency programs that describe of educational activities with special content, i.e., academic (general) and vocational education, and the integration of both of them. Those three models (alternative services) can be described below: 1. Model of Academic/General Academic (general) equivalency programs, with regular open system, intensive learning. The model of General (academic) equivalency programs. This spectrum delivers equivalence education for learners who want to have intellectual competence and get certificate to continue their study to higher level of education. This spectrum is suitable to school-aged learners and in supporting the completion of compulsory basic education and secondary education program. Hence, the proof of study completion is certificate equal to basic education and secondary education. 2. Model of Integrated Academic Vocation Equivalence. This spectrum integrates two “menus� into a kind of educational service, and this is the best form of equivalence education. The spectrum delivers educational service for those who want to get intellectual and vocational competence at the same time as well as personality that is useful to their daily lives and to get a job or to develop private enterprise (small business). The learners get certificate to continue their study to higher education. Beside that learners also get certificate of competence in a certain skill. Hence the proof of study completion is certificate. 3. Model of Pure Vocation Equivalence. This spectrum will provide education services to those who want vocational skill competence only as well as mental preparation prior to enter a job or to start a private business. Learners who have finished equivalence programs will be eligible for this spectrum, either they are general or vocational education or learners who originally come from formal education system. Therefore, the proof of their education result will be Certificate of Competence in a certain skill and Certificate of Completion
