The main goal of the free teacher training program is to meet the demand of qualified teachers in the education system. By providing financial support, the government encourages students with teacher aspirations to choose normal majors and provides them with the training and education they need. This will help to improve the quality and quantity of teachers and meet the recruitment needs of educational institutions.
In publicly funded teacher training programs, students usually receive full or partial tuition assistance, and may receive living allowances or other financial support. The government or educational institutions may require students to serve as teachers in the education department for a certain number of years after completing their studies as a way to repay and serve the society.
