Description: Responsible development of a nation calls for knowledgeable and skilled human capital. Indeed, human capital plays a big role in the planning process and implementation of national development. To achieve this, one strategy is to enhance the skills of individuals, thereby also enhancing their marketability to ensure the availability of a flexible, technically skilled and efficient workforce. To produce and fulfil the requirement for a skilled workforce, the education delivery system and practical training of future graduates should become more responsive to the needs of the job market, which is dynamic and productive and geared towards global competition. This study aims to identify the elements of technical skills needed by electrical engineering students that would make them marketable today. A total of 21 experts were selected to analyse the fuzziness consensus of experts. All collected data were analysed using the Fuzzy Delphi Method. The results show 16 of the 23 elements meet the conditions, the threshold value (dkonstruk) is less than 0.2 and the percentage of the expert group is more than 75%. This shows that, based on the consensus of the experts, the elements of technical skills are needed by electrical engineering students for mastering technical skills.
