Preference Forecasting Proposal for Career Development Service Design From Engineering Educators’ Perspective

Abstract

Engineering educators have acknowledged the importance and need for career training and development programs as a one way to be relevant in this current education transformation and growth. Various numbers of career development programs have been successfully planned and introduced. However, most educators face limitations in choosing the right program that meets their career requirements and preferences. Therefore, this paper is aimed to discuss the preference profiling proposal for career development service design. This paper has discussed the proposed methodology to determine the educator’s preferences to develop a career development program’s preference model based on the educator’s profile. Besides, this paper has presented the preliminary results on the aspects that educators will consider when choosing these programs. A total of 28 experts have participated in this preliminary survey and determined the most aspects of choosing career development. This research proposal is helpful as a reference for designing the career development programs.
