This research aims to produce an understanding that explains the correlation between Theoretical Skills in Welding and the Results of SMAW Welding Practicum. The research method used is a quantitative method with a descriptive correlational approach, aimed at measuring the relationship between theoretical skills and practical skills. The research instruments used in this study include questionnaires, the results of practical exams, and documentation. The research was conducted at SMK Negeri 2 Payakumbuh, with a research population of 50 students in the eleventh grade of Welding Technology. The data analysis results show a significant and positive relationship between theoretical skills and practical results, with a correlation coefficient of 0.701 and a significance value (2-tailed) of 0.000. This indicates a significant and mutually influential relationship between theoretical skills and practical results. Based on the research findings, it can be concluded that the improvement of students' theoretical and practical skills can be utilized and implemented in SMAW welding education, leading to improved student learning outcomes and time efficiency in school. For the future, it is recommended that teachers pay more attention to the students' learning process, which is expected to have a positive impact on the enhancement of both theoretical and practical learning outcomes for students in the field of SMAW welding.
