Analyzing the Relationship Between Professional Development and Job Satisfaction Among Teachers

Abstract

Teachers are among the most visible and influential members of society. There can be little question that a nation's economic vitality depends on a sufficient supply of qualified educators to drive the goals of the institutions that serve as its backbone. The value of a teacher is incalculable since it affects people from all walks of life. Educators' responsibilities extend beyond the confines of the classroom and the school building. The teacher is held in the highest regard because of the influence she has on the lives of her students and the community at large. Almost 500 Telangana secondary school educators participated in the current survey. Data was gathered using the Professional Development of Teachers Inventory and the Teachers Work Satisfaction Scale. The t-test and the Product Moment Correlation Analysis both showed that male and female educators are different in important ways.
