The purpose of this study is to establish the relationship between the effectiveness of the training programs and job performance as perceived by teachers in Malaysia. This study investigates the relationship between the level of effectiveness of training with respect to reaction, learning and behavior outcomes and job performance. 210 respondents from various government schools in Klang Valley had participated in this study through a self-administered survey. The results disclosed that all level of effectiveness have significant relationship with job performance. Therefore we can conclude that teachers indeed need and appreciate all the training programs designed by TED currently.
