<![CDATA[This study examines how the planning of teaching and administrative staff influences the effectiveness of the implementation of the NSEP (Nuris Student Exchange Program) at the Nuris Islamic Boarding School in Jember. The background of this research is based on the importance of the readiness and quality of educational human resources in supporting student exchange programs that require not only academic competence, but also adaptive skills, discipline, and cross-cultural communication skills. This study focuses on the analysis of the process of planning teacher and educational staff needs, including competency mapping, task distribution, training, and managerial support directly related to the implementation of the NSEP. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach through interviews, observations, and documentation. The results show that the success of the NSEP Program is greatly influenced by the quality of educational human resource planning, especially in the readiness of the competence of supervising teachers, inter-sectoral coordination, and the readiness of the administrative assistants. Several obstacles that still arise include the need for further training, uneven teacher workloads, and suboptimal periodic evaluations in the planning process. Therefore, this study recommends strengthening professional teacher development, structuring sustainable human resource planning, and closer collaboration between the Islamic boarding school, partner schools, and parents to support the aspirations of the NSEP Program.]]>
