The contribution of continuous education engineering to the development of teacher competence: case of high school in the provincial direction of BE Beni Mellal

Abstract

The engineering of continuous education as a process of design, coordination and implementation of educative projects, plays a key role in the management of human resources, it is considered the cornerstone given its importance in the improvement and development of human capital, particularly in the education system where the teacher must be up to date to adapt to changes in society and to meet the needs of the job market.

The objective of this article is to analyze the current state of continuous education in the national education sector, as well as to study the contribution of this kind of training to improving the competence of teachers in the classroom.

To achieve these objectives, a hypothetico-deductive approach was used, based on a mixed approach through an initial qualitative study using semi-directive interviews, followed by a quantitative study using questionnaires administered to a sample of 228 qualifying secondary school teachers in the BENIMELLAL provincial authority.

The results obtained indicate that the continuous training within the provincial management of BENIMELLAL is of great interest to teachers in terms of improving their skills and their professional development. However, the continuous training process suffers from several dysfunctions in its implementation in the field, which prevent it from being assimilated into engineering.
