    Abstract
    Studies indicated that there should be collaboration between English and Arabic teachers and disciplinary teachers in order to design instruction that will help students improve specific-discipline writing. This study was designed to investigate the stages of concern and perceptions for the professors at the University of Taibah in order to implement a writing program for specific purposes. The sample of this study was 287, who were taken from the target population, professors at Taibah University from different disciplines. This study is a descriptive study in nature using quantitative method to collect and analysis the data for this study. The study found that the profiles for all sample, gender, language of teaching, qualifications, field of disciplines and teaching experiences indicated that professors’ concerns were most in areas of informational, personal and awareness stages. According to Mulitvariance analysis results, there are no significant differences among the sample based on gender, language of teaching, qualifications, field of disciplines and teaching experiences. The research results emphasize the importance of concern in a new innovation (the writing program). Those results will help the policy makers at Taibah University to facilitate professors’ clear understanding and develop constructive meaning of the new writing program.
