Abstract

Within the last five years, the development of vocational teachers' professionalism has obtained significant attention from the government. With the policy of Ministry of National Education, it has been implemented in various programs, including the teacher certification program, recognition of prior learning, educational with minor authority and others. Through the teacher certification program, it is expected that in 2014 2.6 millions teachers will have been certified. This target seems too ambitious, considering that up to 2010, the total number of teachers having been certified is only 743,070 (28.5%). Developing vocasional teachers' professionalism constitutes a systematic process to develop their competencies concerning their knowledge and skills, with the aim to improve the teachers' performance by means of supervising, training, and education. Developing the vocational teachers' professionalism supported by the information and communication technology (ICT) will be able to reach the teacher community in more diverse spectrum of geographic, educational level, and teaching experience, so that the number of teachers being served will be much greater. Developing vocational teachers' professionalism through ICT-based programs of education, training, or tutoring, will be able to improve the teachers' competence efficiently.
