Descriptive research methods were employed, with questionnaires serving as the primary data collection tool. The survey revealed that the educational background of teachers in local normal universities is characterized by an unreasonable distribution of academic qualifications, with a shortage of teachers holding postgraduate and higher degrees. Additionally, the training effectiveness for female teachers was found to be lower than that of male teachers. There is a lack of personalization in training needs, which tends to be more generalized. The transfer effect of training is moderate, and there is a need for further enhancement at the behavioral level of training effectiveness. A continuous professional development plan for teachers has been formulated to improve training effectiveness and promote professional development.
