Abstract

This research aims to explore the needs of career counseling services for students in different majors in Islamic universities, and identify how these services can be tailored to meet their unique needs. A mixed-methods approach was used to collect and analyze data from undergraduate students in diverse majors at an Islamic university in Kendari. The study found that students in certain majors require more specific counseling, such as information on job market trends and technical skills development. Additionally, the study suggests that career counseling services can be tailored to meet the specific needs of students in diverse majors by providing specialized workshops and networking events, as well as spiritual counseling and guidance. Providing a combination of in-person and online resources can also be highly beneficial for students' career development. The findings of this study can inform the development of more effective and tailored career counseling services for students in Islamic universities, and help ensure that graduates are well-prepared for the job market and can make meaningful contributions to society.

Abstract

This study examines the factors that influence the use of online counselling services and the preferences of students in Islamic Higher Education Institutions (PTKI) in Kendari City, Indonesia.  The research addresses four critical concerns by employing a quantitative method and an explanatory approach:  (1) What are the preferences of students regarding online counselling?  (2) What is the method by which students and faculty at PTKI implement online counselling?  (3) What are the factors that influence students' decision to choose online counselling over in-person counselling?  and (4) What are the factors that support and hinder the utilisation of online counselling services?  Data were gathered from 214 pupils in three PTKIs using the Online Counselling Attitude Scale (OCAS).  The results suggest that students prefer online counselling primarily due to its time efficiency and accessibility.  Nevertheless, concerns persist regarding the loss of personal connection with counsellors and the confidentiality of their interactions.  These results emphasise the necessity for PTKI to enhance counsellor training and fortify its digital counselling infrastructure to guarantee the ethical and effective deliverance of online services.
