Abstract

I have participated in staff development programs since the very begining of the staff development phase at Chulalongkorn University Language Institute and later had a chance to observe an initial teacher training program at the Institute of Education, University of London during the Spring Term 1981-1982. I also participated in a seminar on Professional Development in Universities organized by Alan G. Harding from Bradford University and Associate Professor Somkid Kaewsonthi from Chulalongkorn University at Chulabhorn Dam, Kon Kaen in April 1982. I would like first to identify what staff development is and how important staff development programs are to English Language teachers. Then various types of staff development programs are suggested together with important points worth noticing in organizing any program. Finally, an initial teacher training program at the Institute of Education, University of London is discussed in detail to illustrate the points mentioned earlier. I hope that this article will be of some use to anybody who works along this line whether he be a program organizer or a trainee himself.
