Abstract

This study evaluates the effectiveness of Ethiopia’s 2012 Special Capacity Building Training program designed for secondary school teachers, with a focus on identifying its strengths, challenges, and implications for improving educational quality. Employing a mixed-methods approach, the study integrates quantitative survey data and qualitative insights obtained through interviews and document analysis. The participants consisted of secondary school teachers who were involved in the training program across selected regions. The findings reveal that the program contributed positively to enhancing teachers’ pedagogical knowledge, instructional skills, and professional motivation. However, several challenges were identified, including limited follow-up support, inadequate training resources, and inconsistencies in program implementation across regions. These constraints reduced the overall effectiveness and sustainability of the training outcomes. Furthermore, the study highlights the need for a more structured monitoring and evaluation system, continuous professional development mechanisms, and stronger institutional support to maximize the long-term impact of such capacity-building initiatives. The research provides practical recommendations for policymakers and educational stakeholders to strengthen teacher training programs and improve the quality of secondary education.
