Abstract

The implementation of community service through the Mega Off Vocational Business Competition
(VBC) serves as a strategic platform to support the achievement of learning outcomes in an
Outcome-Based Education (OBE) curriculum. Students of the Public Sector Accounting Study
Program actively participated as organizers and participants in various activities, including
accounting olympiads, badminton, football, volleyball, and tug-of-war. This involvement enhances
essential soft skills such as leadership, teamwork, time management, and effective communication
competencies that are highly relevant in today’s professional landscape. Moreover, the event
provides students with hands-on experience in event management, character building, and the
internalization of professional ethics. The findings suggest that experiential learning approaches in
non-academic activities significantly contribute to students’ preparedness for future professional
challenges.
