Abstract

CPD of teachers has become a major policy priority within education systems worldwide. A further review of policy documents and literature reveals that a new concept of Continuing Professional Develoment (CPD) that builds on current strengths of professional learning and sees teachers as professionals taking responsibility for their own learning and development is also emerging in many countries. In comparison to these international developments, notion of CPD for teachers in India appears in a narrow sense (in-service training) and offers limited opportunities. Present paper details and discusses about Problems of CPD of Teachers in India.
