The emphasis on the development of high quality TVET graduates demands teachers and instructors of TVET who are highly knowledgeable and skilled. Thus, the emphasis on the quality of TVET teachers’ education training of Faculty of Technical and Vocational Education (FTVE), Sultan Idris Education University (UPSI) has become an interesting issue that needs exploration. To evaluate the effectiveness of the education graduates, a quantitative survey research design using the Stuffelbeam evaluation model was carried out. The samples were FTVE graduates that have been placed in secondary schools and vocational colleges all over Malaysia. A total of 111 respondents have answered the questionnaire. The research findings showed that the level of professional knowledge, skills and practice were high.
