Abstract

Teacher professionalism training program or in Indonesia called PPG is one of the government programs in improving teacher competency in Indonesia. At present, to become a teacher is required to have a teaching certificate issued from the participation of prospective teachers in PPG activities. This activity is expected to be able to create professional educators both in the formation of teacher character and mastery of scientific fields. This study aims to explain how PPG can answer the problems of teacher professionalism. The researcher used qualitative methods with a conceptual approach to the concept of A.G.I.L. (Adaptation, Goal Attainment, Integration, and Latency) as the analysis. The results show that there are still several problems such as: (1) unclear information about PPG; (2) knowledge of prospective educators who are still lacking in PPG; (3) availability of human resources as a teacher of PPG; (4) there is a polemic related to the portion for prospective PPG participants who are not only accepting from education graduates; (5) the disappearance of one of the PPG programs, namely SM3T (Bachelor of Teaching in the Leading, Outermost, and Disadvantaged Areas) as a result of the change of leaders that affected the change of policy, which should have been perfecting existing programs; (6) the need for a conceptual approach to A.G.I.L. from Talcott Parsons to be able to answer the PPG problem in education.
