<![CDATA[Career engagement reflects the extent to which individuals actively invest in career development and self-management through exploration, planning, self-reflection, and proactive career-related behaviors. Although the Career Engagement Scale (CES) is widely used to assess this construct, its application across cultural and occupational contexts requires rigorous adaptation and psychometric evaluation. This study aimed to adapt the CES into Indonesian and examine its psychometric properties among lecturers working in private higher education institutions in Indonesia. The adaptation procedure followed the International Test Commission Guidelines for Translating and Adapting Tests. Confirmatory Factor Analysis was conducted using SEM-AMOS to evaluate the factorial structure of the Indonesian version of the CES. The results showed that the adapted scale demonstrated an acceptable model fit and supported the theoretically proposed structure of career engagement. These findings indicate that the Indonesian version of the CES provides a valid and reliable measure for assessing career engagement among lecturers in private higher education institutions. The study contributes to the availability of culturally adapted career assessment tools and offers empirical support for measuring career engagement in the Indonesian academic context.]]>
