The government has announced the reform of the salary system for education, where in addition to the average salary of 950 euros that is expected to increase, teachers will have the opportunity to be paid based on merit. For this reason, the creation of the Teacher's Digital Portfolio has also started, an innovation that aims to include credentials for each teacher, electronic registration of credits, certification and periodic evaluation, up to the monitoring of teaching performance in schools.

According to the government, this way will encourage teachers to increase their performance, while they will be trained on a variety of issues, from teaching methods, digitization, etc.

The Ministry of Education has published the date of the written exam for teachers' qualifications, on May 11. Initially, every teacher will have to complete the request to be included in the qualification procedures by February 27 and submit it together with the professional portfolio to the local education office.  

For teachers to participate in these exams, seniority is a condition for the 2 levels of qualifications, "specialist teacher" and "qualified teacher". The exam will be organized on May 11 and the teachers will be tested regarding their general education, there are even questions from the spelling of the Albanian language, as well as scientific questions about the subject they teach.

To get the title of "specialist teacher" you must have more than 10 years of work, while with more than 20 years of work you compete for the title of "master teacher". For the first category "qualified teacher", teachers must have at least 5 years of work and be subject to open, monitored lessons during the period from April 1 to 26.

It is not yet known how the merit-based payment will work for teachers, but the latter, based on the scores of the files they have submitted and the test, are evaluated as excellent, very good, good and poor.

They do not lose their job if the assessment is not good, but they have the right to retest to gain the qualification status. Participation in the qualification is not mandatory, but based on these criteria, according to the government, in the future teachers will be able to be paid according to merit in addition to the basic salary.

The Ministry of Education launched yesterday the beginning of the National Program for the Professional Development of Teachers 2024-2025. This program aims to empower teachers through training and innovative teaching methods.

With the launch of the National Program for the Professional Development of Teachers, within this year over 4,000 primary education teachers as well as Albanian Language, Mathematics and Science teachers will be trained for digital skills and by 2025, over 16 thousand teachers will are trained in effective teaching methods.
