Abstract

The destiny and development of a nation manifest in the education
system of a country. Since very little significance has been given to the
education system in Pakistan, programs like Continuous Professional
Development (CPD) Programs are very important to let credence to
the education system. For this purpose the sample size of the study
consisted of 49 boys and girls government secondary schools of
Quetta. From total 49 schools, 15 were male and 34 female schools
were chosen for the case study. Where by a close ended questionnaire
was used to know the role of trainee teachers. All the teachers who
have got CPD training was the sample of this research. The findings of
the given research through the SPSS formula revealed that the
respondents highly appreciated the (CPD) program, but at the same
time they held some complaints with regards to the loopholes in the
(CPD) like the lack of transportation, the lack of merit oriented
selection of teachers to receive Continuous Professional Development
(CPD) training, lack of consistency in training sessions and, more
importantly, lack of government funds to expand it to other rural and
far flung areas of Balochistan.
