ABSTRACTCareer selection is one of the most important decisions that an individual makes in his life and is a core task of the late stages of adolescent development in the process of developing self-identity. This study aimed to describe the career choices of nursing students and analyze the differences between freshmen and interns. This cross-sectional study involved 110 and 66 freshmen and interns respectively in two private nursing colleges with “B” accreditation predicate (n=176). Questionnaire of Survey on Career Choice was used in data collection. Descriptive statistic test was used in data analysis. Results showed that most freshmen chose two career choice alternatives (38.18%), but most interns were determined to choose only one alternative (42.42%). There were two most popular career choices among nursing students, such as: nurse practitioner (45.45% totally) and continuing education to be a Master/Specialist of Nursing (33.52% totally). The career intention to be a nurse practitioner in most respondents was referred to civil servant, both in clinical or community work places (59.66% totally). The most popular nursing fields were pediatric nursing in freshmen and psychiatric nursing in interns (34.55% and 25.76% respectively). Strengthening the attitude of love for nursing profession needs to be fostered early in the beginning of college life, so that career choice as a nurse practitioner after finishing the internship program can be maintained.    ABSTRAKPemilihan karir adalah salah satu keputusan terpenting yang dibuat individu dalam hidupnya dan merupakan tugas inti dari tahap perkembangan remaja akhir dalam proses pembangunan identitas diri.

Teaching profession is often seen as a non-rewarding career due to high burden duties that the teachers have to endure. Consequently, many teachers lose interest in teaching, which resulted in a lack of job satisfaction. However, this profession has been chosen due to intrinsic, extrinsic and altruistic motivation. In view of this, there are some factors that are not explored in depth in a teaching career at Vocational Colleges. Therefore, this paper intends to develop an instrument on the factors influencing career choice model among Malaysian Vocational College teachers. Using the five experts’ consensus through the online questionnaires, Fleiss Kappa (K) is then used to evaluate the level of agreement between the raters. The development of the constructs are based on 114 literature review articles. There are six major key factors found: family influence, socio-cultural influence, individual, situational and spiritual. There are 130 items developed and the overall finding K value is 0.55. Nevertheless, the K value within six major key factors is 0.4 to 0.86. The expert panels agree that this questionnaire might be acceptable with some improvement based on their additional comments in the online form. Based on this validation process, this questionnaire can be used in selecting quality of Malaysian Vocational College teachers or TVET instructors. For the next step, this questionnaire will be conducted on 52 excellent teachers at Malaysian Vocational Colleges to understand in depth the key factors that significantly influence the decision of an individual to enter the vocational teaching profession in Malaysian Vocational Colleges. In future, the findings on this research will expose rich sources on the field of teaching and will be helpful to identify some high-quality TVET teachers in Malaysian Vocational College.

Abstract Background: In 2019, China completed the pilot project “Internet Plus Nursing Service.” The study aimed to investigate the attitude, willingness, and motivation of third-year undergraduate nursing students toward “Internet Plus Nursing Service,” providing a reference for the development of “Internet Plus Nursing Service” and related nursing education. Methods: This cross-sectional study comprised 508 third-year undergraduate nursing students from a public University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, using a self-designed survey.Results: Of these 508 nursing students, 314 (61.81%) expressed support for the implementation of “Internet Plus Nursing Service,” 150 (29.52%) remained neutral and 44 (8.66%) expressed disapproval. In regards to career choice, 279 (54.92%) were willing to choose “Internet Plus Nursing Service” as their future career choice, 51 (10.04%) were unwilling, and 178 (35.04%) were unsure. The top three motivations to choose “Internet Plus Nursing Service” as their future career choice were added income, high autonomy and flexibility, and good job prospects. On the contrary, the top three motivation not to choose were safety concern, lack of time and energy, unwilling elderly care. gender, whether an only child or not, home location, and degree of knowledge and skills required for elderly care were not significantly associated with the willingness of nursing students to participate in “Internet Plus Nursing Service” (P > 0.05). Experience of community activities or a part-time job, elderly care experience, choice of nursing profession, satisfaction with nursing profession, willingness to engage in nursing work after graduation, and willingness to engage in elder care work were significantly associated with the willingness of nursing students to participate in “Internet Plus Nursing Service” (P < 0.05).Conclusion: Students had a positive attitude towards “Internet Plus Nursing Service” and were willing to choose “Internet Plus Nursing Service” as their future career choice. However, they lacked the willingness to engage in elder care after graduation. School education should strengthen the nursing education of elder care, develop a diversified nursing service model and professional training programs that meet social demands and professional needs, as well as address the opportunities and challenges of the Internet era.
