This paper presents the findings of a survey on training needs’ assessment among teachers in-service in Mozambican pre-university agricultural technical institutes. The survey was undertaken in 2013, aiming at informing the process of curriculum design of a joint undergraduate program in Agriculture and Professional Education, a project of the Faculty of Agronomy and Forestry Engineering and the Faculty of Education, Eduardo Mondlane University. The research, mainly quantitative, was based on a sample of 67 teachers (25% of the total population) in-service in Mozambican pre-university agricultural technical institutes who answered a close-ended questionnaire on their self-assessment regarding their training needs. From the findings obtained through a questionnaire administered to teachers, two conclusions are drawn. Firstly, the academic, professional and pedagogic qualifications of the teachers correspond to the ideal profile of a teacher of professional-agricultural education. Secondly, although the teachers generally self-assess positively their command of the different knowledge domains required by a teaching profession in professional-agricultural education, they feel that they need more training in aspects related to competence-based teaching approach, to the understanding of the nature of PIREP’s reform and to the command of generic competences such as ICT and foreign languages.
