Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan mendeskripsikan peran bimbingan dan konseling (BK) dalam penguatan pendidikan karakter siswa Sekolah Menengah Kejuruan (SMK) Mitra Industri MM2100, Cikarang, Bekasi, Jawa Barat. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan desain studi kasus, dimana data dikumpulkan dengan teknik wawancara dan observasi. Informan utama adalah: pengurus Yayasan Mitra Industri Cikarang; kepala sekolah; wakil kepala sekolah bidang kurikulum; wakil kepala sekolah bidang kesiswaan; guru BK; guru wali kelas; dan siswa SMK Mitra Industri MM2100. Data dianalisis dengan kategorisasi dan reduksi data sesuai dengan fokus penelitian. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa BK memiliki peran penting dalam penguatan pendidikan karakter. BK berperan aktif dalam proses seleksi; pencegahan perilaku menyimpang; dan pengentasan penyimpangan perilaku siswa. Peran tersebut dilaksanakan secara kolaboratif dengan kesiswaan; guru wali kelas; orangtua; dan siswa. Keberhasilan program pendidikan karakter di SMK dikarenakan terbangunnya “segitiga emas komunikasi” yaitu kesadaran dan komitmen bersama antara: sekolah; orangtua dan siswa. Di samping itu, pola evaluasi dan supervisi harian serta mingguan membuat sekolah, khususnya guru BK dapat mengidentifikasi, mengantisipasi dan merespon indikasi masalah perilaku dan karakter siswa secara cepat. Dari hasil penelitian, para pimpinan SMK disarankan agar mengembangkan sistem pendidikan karakter secara kolaboratif antara guru BK; kesiswaan; orangtua dan siswa.
