Abstract: The purposes of this research were: 1) to develop information regarding the needs for curriculum development, and 2) to assess the needs for developing the Graduate Diploma Program in Teaching Profession at Buriram Rajabhat University. The study was conducted in two phases. Phase 1 involved focus group discussions with 40 stakeholders representing key groups in curriculum development, including educational experts and administrators, graduates’ employers or school principals, teachers, program administrators, full-time and part-time lecturers, alumni, and current students. A semi-structured interview form for focus group discussions on curriculum development was used as the research instrument. The Index of Item-Objective Congruence (IOC) ranged from 0.60 to 1.00. The data were analyzed using content analysis. In Phase 2, data were collected from 155 stakeholders using a five-point rating scale questionnaire on the needs for curriculum development. The questionnaire consisted of 40 items covering four domains: knowledge, skills, ethics, and characteristics. The IOC values ranged from 0.60 to 1.00. The data were analyzed using percentage, mean, standard deviation, and the Modified Priority Needs Index (PNImodified). The findings revealed that: 1) desirable graduates should possess knowledge and competencies in the teaching profession, particularly in instructional design and learning management, research, measurement and evaluation, and the integration of technology in teaching and learning. In addition, they should demonstrate communication skills, teamwork, the ability to create educational innovations, as well as morality, ethics, and professional teaching ethics, enabling them to effectively perform their professional responsibilities and contribute to educational development in ways that are appropriate to community and societal contexts. 2) The results of the needs assessment indicated that the domains of knowledge and skills had the highest priority needs (PNImodified = 0.12), followed by characteristics (PNImodified = 0.09) andethics (PNImodified = 0.08), respectively.
