Abstract
This theoretical piece discusses the concept of a teacher learning progression in an attempt to integrate teacher learning and assessment. From the authors' perspective, the main features of the teacher learning progression are the longitudinal understanding of teacher knowledge and practice, and the opportunity to align teacher evaluations' formative and summative purposes. Criteria to assess existing teacher learning progressions are proposed and used to examine examples of teacher assessment systems implemented in different parts of the world. The concept of teacher learning progression has national and international implications for teacher training, for teaching assessment and for the design and implementation of educational policies.
