Abstract

This research seeks to investigatethe governance of in-service training for elementary school teachers, enabling them to engage with diverse types, techniques, and training materials. The research methodology employed a mixed-methods approach, utilizing both quantitative and qualitative methods, and applied the concurrent transformative strategy model.. The author analyzes perspectives from various frameworks to obtain comprehensive results. The study revealed that there are still a group of elementary school teachers who have not received in-service training while some have received it repeatedly, and others have received it more than five times. The governance of in-service training in the form of a roadmap has the values of fairness, equity, and proportionality in distributing training services to elementary school teachers which are supported by digital-based platforms. This enables teachers to easily access, download, and document training materials and evidence, while the government can use their track record to assess professionalism and provide opportunities for them to become teacher leaders. © 2023, Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta (Yogyakarta State University).
