This research developed an integrative evaluation model for work-integrated learning (WIL) management, specifically tailored for hotel and tourism vocational education courses. The study was conducted in two phases. The first phase involved the creation and validation of the evaluation model, with input from education evaluation experts and WIL management specialists. In the second phase, the model's effectiveness was tested and evaluated among stakeholders, including employers, instructors, and undergraduate seniors (n=95). Statistical analyses revealed that the developed ‘LEL (Learners, Employers, Lecturers) Model’ exhibited high overall quality and suitability for assessment purposes. The findings suggest significant improvement in students' development scores post-implementation, highlighting the model's potential to enhance learning quality and meet industry demands.
