Numerous qualified but not permanently engaged teachers became vicegerent. Therefore, this study was to investigate the training needs of elementary school vicegerent teachers. The study adopted the questionnaire survey method for all the elementary school vicegerent teachers of Pingtung County in 95th school year. The self-made “Questionnaire for Training Needs of Elementary School Vicegerent Teachers” was used for data collecting, and divided into the following four parts: “Individual Background Data”,”Enrollment Needs Scale”, “Curriculum Needs Scale” and one open question.

The curriculum needs, based on “Human Capital Investment Project”, included the needs of five curriculum types: Management, Applied Language, Computer-related Course, Society Service, and Finance, and. There were 140 questionnaires delivered, and 132 valid questionnaires returned. The collected data were analyzed by using descriptive statistic, one-sample t-test, independent-samples t-test and One-way ANOVA.
