Abstract
The study sought the views of teachers and union officials on the conceptualization, rationale, structure and benefits of the structured TPD programme being rolled out in Kenya. Descriptive research design was employed with an online questionnaires and interview schedules being used to collect data. The findings showed that most teachers had a good understanding of TPD and found it beneficial to their practice. However, there was little involvement in the design and conceptualization of the TSC-TPD program. It is recommended that TSC adopts a more robust engagement mechanism with teachers and other key education stakeholders for effective implementation of the programme.
