The proposed measurement model for vocational teacher builds on the four competency domains namely “teaching competence”, “professional competence”, “communication competence” and “personal competence”. Once the model and measurement instrument tested for robustness on the psychometrics properties, it could be a reference among HR researcher and practitioner in designing the new curricula and training for professional development.
