Today, the use of technology in education has led to the creation of new educational methods. Digital storytelling is one of the technologies that play a major role in education. This study was conducted to investigate the effectiveness of job training through digital storytelling on the job adaptability and self-efficacy of employees. This research was quantitative in terms of objectives and data collection method. This quasi-experimental study has a pre-test/post-test design and a control group. The statistical population included all employees of private air cargo service companies in Tehran province, and among this population, one company was selected by convenience sampling, and 60 employees were randomly assigned to experimental and control groups by voluntary sampling. Data were collected using Savickas’ career adaptability and Sherer’s general self-efficacy questionnaires and were analyzed in SPSS software at both descriptive and inferential levels. The findings showed that job training through digital storytelling can increase the adaptability and general self-efficacy of employees. Accordingly, digital storytelling might be used as a new educational resource and tool to meet the educational needs of organizations.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of technology in meeting the educational needs of organizations. The research method was mixed method (qualitative and quantitative) and its statistical population included all private companies in Tehran that one of them was selected based on the available sampling method. In the qualitative part, 17 experts (university lecturers and company managers) and in the quantitative part, 30 employees existed and were randomly assigned into experimental (15 people) and control (15 people) groups. The findings of the qualitative part showed that organizations suffer from six problems in the assessment section including lack of adequate skill in assessment, long assessment intervals, expenses, psychological problems, facilities, and regulation and in the education part, problems include expenses, lack of skills, lack of education conditions, inadequate training, and lack of supervision. In this study, for sample selection and education in the quantitative part, modern software in the context of mental health and emotional intelligence were used for assessment and then, educational sessions consistent with the conditions of people were held online. The findings of the quantitative part showed that the emotional intelligence training courses consistent with technology (online) could improve mental health of people and significantly reduced the problems of assessment and education in the organization from the perspectives of the participants. According to the findings of this study, it can be concluded that the use of technology can play a crucial role in assessment, evaluating employees, and organizational training.

Career calling means believing in this principle that the person’s life is a fundamental part of the broad sense of goal and meaning in life and is used in helping people to advance their goals particularly. The purpose of the current study was to investigate career calling from the perspective of the Quran as a case study by Surah Yusuf. The findings showed that we had addressed all aspects of job calling in the Quran, particularly in Surah Yusuf. By studying and collecting evidence, we can conclude that a significant part of the fundamental roots of the career calling Theory (WCT) concentrates on the Quran and, in particular, Surah Yusuf, which has functioned as a model for this theory. The Quran emphasizes the characteristics and goals of an issue that has rarely been addressed in the existing ideas or assessment tools. As a result, through being inspired by the commands of the Quran in terms of career and providing a professional-religious model, context for successful employment can be provided, and also assess new variables, such as calling characteristics.
