This research is univariate quantitative with descriptive design. The purpose of this study is to observe the public speaking self-efficacy of the finalists and the results of this study shows that the mean value of the public speaking self- efficacy from the majority of finalists is high, so that they feel the development of content, structure, delivery, and presentational aids to the audience can improve the public speaking self-efficacy well.
