Kingdom of Saudi Arabia – Saudi Classification of Professions

The General Authority for Statistics in KSA has produced a Saudi Classification of Professions which is mapped to ISCO-08, the International Standard Classification of Occupations produced by the International Labour Office in Geneva.

126 technology-related occupations have been mapped to SFIA by SkillsTX as part of the MCIT SFIA program, and are available in the SkillsTX SaaS solution. This mapping was carried out by Matthew Burrows, Andy Thomson, and John Boyle.
