Guidance and counseling services are mandatory services for students in every education unit, not least at Madrasa Aliyah (Islamic-based schools equivalent to high schools) in Palangka Raya City, Central Kalimantan Province. the process of managing data on guidance and counseling services (classical guidance and individual counseling) is carried out using manual recording in journal books containing student data, types of services, problem identification and follow-up results. The problem that then arises is the lack of data accuracy about how often classical guidance and individual counseling services are carried out by Counseling Guidance Teachers for the type and field of service. Without the accuracy of the data, it is feared that it will produce weak conclusions and do not have good quality information. For this reason, a data management application for guidance and counseling services was developed with the aim that the Madrasa Aliyah Guidance and Counseling Teachers in Palangka Raya City were able to manage data on guidance and counseling services properly. This application was developed with an agile software development approach using the extreme programming (XP) method and based on object-oriented programming. The result of this research is an application that is able to manage data on classical guidance services and individual counseling well and is able to provide information that is responsive to the data inputted by the Guidance and Counseling Teachers. The results of unit testing and acceptance testing provide very worthy results and can be accepted by system users (Guidance and Counseling Teachers).
