Higher education institution which conducts internship in the engineering field triggers questionable remarks from the public due to learning outcomes measurement process. In Indonesia, the education process offers pros and cons to assess the student learning outcomes during institutional accreditation, especially vocational college since its special characteristics. Moreover, a compulsory course like internship brings high complexity to assess the learning outcomes due to lack of supervision from department members. During the internship, the learning outcomes cover five necessary aspects: attitude, knowledge, special skill, general skill, and internship product. The grades are delivered by the field supervisor and department supervisor who make the measurement becomes highly complicated. Huge and unprecedented attention is given to engineering departments about their accountability and the measurement method of student learning outcomes during the internship. The paper aims to propose a novel methodology called Grade and Outcome Analysis Log-sheets (GOAL6.4) program. The program could complete the measurement process with various involved variables. Furthermore, the program could specify the detailed percentage of each learning outcomes during the internship, even more, other class-based courses in the engineering department. Besides, the final result of the program could connect the relationship between students’ course grades and the learning outcomes.
