Abstract
The present study was planned to assess the training needs of faculty members at the university level. The study was delimited to the University of Loralai only. The main objective of the study was to assess the training needs of teaching staff at the university level. The population of the study was the teachers of the University of Loralai city. 12 teachers from the university were taken as a sample. The questionnaire was constructed, which included different areas, i.e., personal, educational/and professional development of faculty members. The study assessed training needs in critical areas such as classroom management, lesson planning, preparation of question papers/tests, marking of papers/tests, use of library, computer skills, internet use, research skills, technology integration, and ethical decision-making. Addressing these areas through targeted training programs is crucial to meet the expressed needs of the teachers and improve their overall effectiveness in their roles. To address these areas, the study recommended that universities enhance the professional competencies of their faculty, which ultimately leads to improved teaching quality, student engagement, and overall academic excellence.
