Stellar & Strategy Directives Partner to Empower Students as Globally Competitive Citizens

Press Release  March 2, 2025

Stellar is proud to announce its strategic partnership with Strategy Directives DMCC, a leading EdTech consultancy and developer of the innovative “Maharatkom” psychometric assessments. This partnership aims to empower high school students in Saudi Arabia by helping them identify academic majors that align with their unique passions, strengths, and interests, setting them on a path toward academic and professional success.

What distinguishes the Student Career Assessment from Maharatkom is its comprehensive alignment with the educational and professional landscape of the MENA region. Unlike conventional career assessment tools, Maharatkom is specifically designed to address the cultural, economic, and emerging job market demands in Saudi Arabia and the broader region. The assessment incorporates localized data, regional career trends, and industry insights, thereby providing students with practical and pertinent guidance that aligns their strengths, passions, and aspirations with the future of work in the region.

Aligned with Stellar’s mission to lead in delivering innovative educational solutions, this partnership leverages the power of the “Maharatkom” psychometric assessments. Through this collaboration, students will gain access to advanced tools designed to guide them in understanding how their individual talents align with the evolving demands of the modern workforce. The AI-driven, web-based solution combines situational judgment testing with behavioral and personality analysis to deliver tailored insights. Students receive personalized reports that highlight their strengths, interests, and skills, mapping them to recommended academic majors and providing a clear pathway for their academic journey.

By embracing a data-driven approach, the collaboration not only supports student growth but also equips educators with critical insights to nurture talent effectively. Together, Stellar and Strategy Directives are driving progress in alignment with Saudi Vision 2030, fostering a vibrant society where every individual can thrive, pursue their passions, and contribute meaningfully to the Kingdom’s transformative goals.

Khulood Eshaq, CEO of Stellar stated that their partnership with Strategy Directives marks a pivotal step in empowering the youth in Saudi to make informed academic choices. Vision 2030 focuses on creating a vibrant society where citizens can thrive and pursue their passions, contributing to the Kingdom’s transformative goals, and we hope that this partnership serves as a step towards this goal.

Khairy Abuljebain, Managing Director of Strategy Directives, shared his excitement about the partnership, stating, ‘We are thrilled to collaborate with a forward-thinking organization like Stellar. Together, we will inspire students to discover their true passions and align their academic choices with their aspirations, paving the way for fulfilling and purpose-driven futures. This partnership will also provide educators and stakeholders with valuable insights to nurture students’ unique talents and guide them toward careers they are passionate about.
