Outcomes-Based Education (OBE), Career planning, Employment guidance, Curriculum teaching reform.

This paper explores the systematic reform of college students' career planning and employment guidance courses based on the Outcomes-Based Education (OBE) concept. With global economic transformation and technological advancement, university graduates face significant challenges in employment. Traditional course models have exhibited numerous deficiencies in terms of curriculum objectives, content, and evaluation mechanisms, failing to effectively enhance students' career planning capabilities and employment competitiveness. By analyzing the theoretical foundation of the OBE concept, this paper proposes specific measures to optimize curriculum objectives, teaching content, teaching methods, and assessment mechanisms. The core of the curriculum reform lies in backward design, with a focus on the actual professional competencies that students should possess upon graduation. This approach promotes the dynamic adjustment of teaching content and the implementation of diversified teaching methods. Additionally, the introduction of a diversified evaluation system ensures that the teaching outcomes are aligned with the demands of society. This study not only provides theoretical and practical guidance for the reform of career planning courses in higher education but also offers practical solutions for cultivating graduates with high-quality and career adaptability.
