Abstract. A training program is conducted to address the need for fundamental skills in Engineering Drawing. The partner school for this program is SMK Muhammadiyah Tirtayasa, located in the Serang Regency. The training focuses on basic technical drawing techniques. A total of 14 participants, including students and teachers, take part in the training. The training began with an explanation of the theoretical foundations of technical drawing, followed by three practical exercises. The participants' progress was evaluated based on the quality of their technical drawings. The results indicated that the participants had a good overall understanding and ability to apply the fundamental principles of line drawing, object projections, and dimensioning. The average scores across the three exercises were relatively high. Furthermore, the analysis revealed that male participants achieved higher scores compared to their female counterparts. To enhance the professionalism of the participants, it is recommended to incorporate computer-aided drawing tools to enhance their knowledge and skills in applying technical drawing concepts. In conclusion, the training program successfully provides participants with essential skills in Engineering Drawing. The findings highlight the potential benefits of integrating computer-based applications to further enhance their proficiency in this field.
