The impact of in-service and retraining education on the professional development of teachers in international practice

Abstract

In our republic, as in all fields, successful reforms are ongoing in the field of education. Integration of Azerbaijani education into world education, adaptation to international standards, use of progressive world experience at all stages and levels of education serves sustainable development. The fulfillment of a global task, such as the transformation of material resources into human capital, requires, first of all, the introduction of new mechanisms at all stages and levels of education. The rapid flow of information in society results in the rapid change of knowledge and information. Even in the most perfect educational system, a significant part of the acquired knowledge loses its activity from time to time. Therefore, in the rapidly changing, globalized world, knowledge and skills need to be constantly renewed, improved, and reconciled with the requirements of the time. From this point of view, it is necessary to change and improve the professional knowledge of professionals working in all areas of public life, including teaching staff, both quantitatively and qualitatively. The continuous training of pedagogical personnel working in the field of education, who shape the intellectual potential of the society and the future of the nation, are considered the most leading direction in the state's policy, is needed today. Experience shows that the educational system of society's development poses many important problems, the realization of which depends on the level of professionalism of the teaching staff.
