Abstract

The Education Program has a significant impact on students' academic performance and employability in the education sector. The study aimed to understand how students' perceptions of their academic record and their influence on their employability were analyzed. The study focused on English major students in China who expressed dissatisfaction with their academic performance and the idea that their course was relevant to their future employment. Many students disagreed with the idea that they are more likely to find employment in a private school and believed that their field of study is in high demand. They also disagreed with other indicators such as confidence in their skills and knowledge, the role of teachers in teaching students, and the readiness of students to work in an education work environment. The study concluded that a student's ability to advance in the education sector is significantly influenced by their academic record, which is a result of the correlation between the two.
