dc.description.abstractWithin the context of the education system of Trinidad and Tobago, and the history of geography content and teaching, this paper examines the continuing training of primary and secondary teachers of geography in the country. Provision for primary school teacher training includes: 1) on-the-job inservice education used to boost academic qualifications for pupil teachers and to instill a minimum of teaching proficiency; 2) off-the-job full-time inservice training at a teachers' training college, used to train primary school teachers in professional skills; and 3) occasional seminars, workshops, or courses. For teachers at the secondary level, there are: 1) a one-year inservice teacher education programme at the Faculty of Education, The University of the West Indies (UWI); and 2) specialist workshops, seminars, and conferences
