Abstract

Developing professional madrasa teachers is increasingly popular in teaching, but regarding the accuracy of professional madrasa teachers without clear reasons for this. This article examines the impact of gender and length of certification on developing professional madrasa teacher accuracy. A research project, which deals with using questionnaires, at seventy-five madrasas, and data from 325 madrasa teachers was collected, and analysis with descriptive statistics, linear correlation, and regression. The results show that the accuracy of the developing professional madrasa teacher is low and is related to the gender of the madrasa teacher, that men perceive themselves to be higher in the developing professional madrasa teacher than women, and that even length of certification analysis with developing professional competence. Madrasa teacher length certifications of more than 10 years are higher than teachers who are certified between 5-10 years and more accurate than teachers who have been certified for less than 5 years with the ability to develop professional madrasa teachers that are low. It is necessary to examine the reasons behind this difference and to look for steps to improve the accuracy of the developing professional madrasa teacher.
