This research aims to develop the CR-P Module and to determine the content validity of the CR-P Module for university students. The development of CR-P Module was based on the two sub modules known as Career Self-Efficacy and Big Five Personality. After the module development, the content validity of the module was evaluated by eight experts and the research findings showed that the value of content validity coefficient was 0.92. In conclusion, this research indicated that the CR-P Module has a high validity which can be utilized by university students.
