The Role of the Academic Standards Released by Education and Training Evaluation Commission in Catering for the Needs of the Labour Market in the Specialization in Sunnah and Its Sciences

Specialization in the Prophetic Sunnah is one of the most important Shari'ah majors that has gained attention in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, because its constitution was premised on the Qur'an and the Sunnah. Hence, the Ministry of Education has designed a specialization for the study of the Sunnah and its sciences, ostensibly as a national and global contributor to its propagation. Due to the mandate of Education and Training Evaluation Commission as represented in the National Center for Academic Accreditation and Evaluation, in improving the products of the university education on the national level, it had laid down certain academic standards for this specialization, which contains guide to actualizing the need of the labour market, and among these standards is: the academic standards for program in the noble Hadith, which is now represented in the Faculty of the Noble Hadith at the Islamic University of Madinah. The research sought to study the academic and skill requirements for the labour market based on the standards of the teachers of Islamic Education released by Qiyas Center, and the Unified Saudi Classification for Academic Levels and Specializations, and the aspirations of the Kingdom's Vision 2030. We seek for success and guidance from Allah.
