Automating Counselling and Career Services in Saudi Arabia Higher Education Institutes
Abstract
Currently, career counselling services are offered in most of the higher education institutes in Saudi Arabia, however, there are no systems installed to automate these services. This paper takes Dar Al Hekma College (DAHC) in Saudi Arabia as motivation case and discusses the need of automating the college’s counselling and career services. By following the stages of SDLC, an effective system was developed for a real-world environment. The methods used for fact finding techniques were observations, interviews, questionnaires, and discussions. The survey outcomes have also shown a positive reaction regarding the impact of installation of such a system. Insights from this study can be applied to other higher education institutes in Saudi Arabia.
