Abstract

Due to the pivotal roles played by Education 4.0 in reshaping the skills necessary for sustenance in the 4<sup>th</sup> Industrial Revolution (4IR), we investigate computer science teachers’ preparedness to acquire the requisite skills for effectively equipping students with skills, especially technology skills for the life and work of 4IR. Teachers play crucial roles in preparing students for a technology-driven world. Examining their readiness to acquire skills for effective delivery of Education 4.0’s skills-based content becomes imperative. Prior to data collection, the teachers underwent a tailored professional development training focusing on 4IR, Education 4.0, and the required skills. Our findings reveal an overall positive disposition of the teachers towards acquiring the skills needed to fulfil the roles demanded by Education 4.0. This finding reiterates the importance of professional development initiatives to assist teachers in meeting the skills requirements and also face the challenges of Education 4.0. Consequently, we advocate for interventions tailored to address the specific needs of teachers, enabling them to embrace the evolving responsibilities associated with Education 4.0.
