Abstract. With the development of information technology, practical work at Trunojoyo University
Madura needs improvement in applied management. Practical work is a mandatory activity for Information
Systems undergraduate students which aims to test and apply theory as well as scientific proof of the courses
that have been obtained. In the practical work management process is still done manually, it will take up a
lot of time and frequent errors. Therefore, the Job Training Management Information System will be
implemented using the waterfall model, the PHP programming language with Codeingniter as its
framework. The waterfall model provides a sequential approach to software life phases starting from
analysis, design, code implementation, testing, and maintenance. This research produces the results of the
analysis of hardware and software requirements. The design produces Use case diagrams and Entity
Diagrams. Testing produces a system by testing with black box testing with valid test results. This research
produces a management system that is used to manage data related to practical work activities.
