Introduction. Career choice is an essential stage for vocational students to identify suitability, readiness, and development of the capacity to work. However, until now, studies that discuss how vocational learning can shape students' career choices are still limited and not yet widely discussed. This study aims to develop structural models to shape the maturity of student career choices, which involves teaching quality, learning goal orientation, and performance goal orientation in collaboratively and interactively. Specifically, this study aims to investigate the effects of teaching quality, learning goal orientation, and performance goal orientation on career choice. Also, it will help to examine the role of mediation for the student's goal orientation under the influence of teaching quality. Materials and Methods. Data were collected randomly through an online questionnaire survey from 289 vocational students in the tourism field in Indonesia which included the culinary art and hospitality department. SEM analysis is used to test the path model and bootstrapping confidence interval estimate to test the mediation role. Results. This study revealed that teaching quality, learning goal orientation, and performance goal orientation are collaborative and interactive predictors of career choice of vocational students. Also, the learning goal orientation and performance goal orientation significantly mediate the effect of teaching quality on student career choices, and this mediation is partial. Discussion and Conclusion. This study also reinforces the theory that the success of achieving the learning outcome is significantly affected by external (e.g., teaching quality) and internal dimension (e.g., student goal orientation). Finally, it is recommended that vocational education practitioners should improve the quality of learning and teaching process by encouraging positive student goal orientation.
