Abstract
This study aims to analyze the effect of the Double Track Program and entrepreneurship education on the entrepreneurial readiness of high school students in Sumenep Regency, with entrepreneurial self-efficacy as a mediator. The problem raised is the low level of entrepreneurial readiness despite participating in entrepreneurship programs. The research method used a quantitative approach with data collection through questionnaires on 238 student respondents and data analysis using SEM-PLS. The results of the analysis show that the Double Track Program and entrepreneurship education have a significant effect on entrepreneurial readiness, and entrepreneurial self-efficacy mediates this relationship. In conclusion, strengthening entrepreneurial self-efficacy is important to improve the effectiveness of the program and students' readiness for entrepreneurship
