Abstract: The purpose of this research is to obtain the most appropriate generic skills element agreement during the training industry to meet industry needs. The design used is a sequential exploration using a mixed method approach consist document analysis and questioner. The sample of this study involved 8 experts consisting of 4 industry representatives and 4 academic representatives. The findings using qualitative methods by analysing MQF 2018 documents report that 14 generic skills elements are identified. Whereas, the findings using a strongly correlated method by analysing Fliess Kappa are used to measure the most appropriate generic skill element index in implementing activities. The findings show that 3 generic skills that are not suitable to be applied in the curriculum training industry based on the agreement experts include entrepreneurs, ethics and integrity as well as continuous learning skills from 11 generic elements of skills. The researcher hopes that the findings can be utilized by the higher education as a guide in the development of a generic skills curriculum that is more focused on training.
