One of the main challenges of the Malaysia’s education system is to improve the education services to prepare students to face the future challenges for the 21st century skills such as critical thinking, creative thinking and problem solving skills. The recent challenges require teachers to not only equip but strengthened themselves with Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) program to fulfill the organizational vision. Previous studies have shown teacher’s efficacy influenced teacher effectiveness. Another significant issue in the teacher effectiveness research is the training program. The respondents will consist of teachers in Malaysian public secondary schools. Most of the past results had suggested that there were significant relationships between these variables. The findings are expected to have some contributions both to the practical and theoretical aspects to enable public secondary schools to develop and strengthened teachers as competent managers of teaching and learning in the classrooms.
