Career plateau occurs when a teacher is no longer able to move forward or upward in his or her career development. This issue cannot be ignored. Career resilience, on the other hand, refers to good adaptive ability in a changing work environment, as it helps in overcoming and breaking through the hindrance of career plateau. Therefore, the main objective of this study was to explore the current status of teachers’ career plateau, organizational commitment, professional commitment, and career resiliency, as well as the relationships among them. This study adopted the questionnaire survey method, and the research participants comprised formal teachers aged 35 years and above, from public junior high schools and elementary schools. The purposive sampling method was used, and the survey was conducted in the pre-test and final test stages. This was followed by data analysis using SPSS 22.0. A total of 120 valid questionnaires were collected in the pre-test stage, while a total of 426 valid questionnaires were returned in the final test stage. The research tools comprised Career Plateau Scale, Organizational Commitment Scale, Professional Commitment Scale, and Career Resilience Scale. The main findings of the study were: 1) career plateau had a significant and negative impact on organizational commitment, 2) career plateau had a significant and negative impact on professional commitment, 3) career resilience had no moderating effect on the relationship between career plateau and organizational commitment, 4) career resilience had no moderating effect on the relationship between career plateau and professional commitment.
