Data were analyzed using content analysis and descriptive statistics, including percentage, mean, and standard deviation. The research results found that: The results showed that the current condition of digital technology-based educational management was at a high level, while the need for development was at the highest level, particularly in digital-era teachers and learning management. The developed model consisted of six components: principles, objectives, content, implementation procedures, evaluation, and conditions for success. The overall appropriateness of the model was rated at the highest level. The implementation results indicated that digital educational management was at good to very good levels in all aspects, and students’ career skills were at a good level. Furthermore, the post-implementation evaluation revealed that students’ digital-based career skills, satisfaction, feasibility, and usefulness of the model were at high to the highest levels.
