Popis: In the rapidly evolving field of technology, programming languages play a crucial role in shaping the competencies of future software developers. This study examined the trends in programming languages to assist educators in designing curricula that align with current industry demands. Analyzing LinkedIn profiles of software developers in the Philippines from 2013 to 2023, the study identifies prevalent programming languages and their usage trends. The findings reveal that JavaScript-based languages and mobile development languages have significantly increased in usage, while WordPress (CMS) and jQuery have declined. The study emphasizes the importance of incorporating JavaScript-based languages into IT programs to equip students for the rapidly evolving technology landscape. Furthermore, the analysis of the curriculum adopted by the Commission for Higher Education (CHED) shows a strong alignment with industry demands, particularly for key programming languages such as Java, PHP, and Python. The study suggests that continuous curriculum updates are necessary to keep pace with technological advancements and ensure graduates possess relevant skills.
