This paper is to discuss partnership program implementation carried out between polytechnics and industry in the remote area, a model of sustainable partnerships of the teaching program between polytechnics and local industry, and benefits of a partnership program between polytechnics and local industry. These are conducted to create graduates, according to labor market needs. The partnership program is also more optimal if it supported by a good communication between Polytechnic, industry, and government.
