Can the training of middle-aged and elderly teachers be regarded as continuing education?
The training of middle-aged and elderly teachers can be regarded as continuing education, updating knowledge and improving teaching methods.

With the rapid progress of civilization, the rapid development of science and culture and the deepening of new curriculum reform, modern education has put forward higher and higher requirements for teachers' professional development. How to update teachers' educational concepts and knowledge, enrich teachers' professional quality and improve teachers' professional ability, so as to promote teachers' professional development to meet the requirements of modern education development, has become an urgent problem for education authorities at all levels and grass-roots schools.

It can best reflect the depth and breadth of teachers' cultural education and determine the scientific and creative level of teachers' educational and teaching activities and scientific research activities. This is the basis for a teacher to be a "teacher". Without this premise, even if a teacher has mastered advanced educational concepts and skilled educational technology, it will be a tree without roots, water without sources and meaningless.
