Nine elementary school teachers with one or more than two years’ teaching experience participating in such a program from central Taiwan were recruited as participants. Data were mainly collected from semi-structured interviews, each of which lasted for about an hour. Interview transcripts were checked and confirmed by the participants. We utilized open coding and axial coding methods to reveal the themes of the findings. Below is a summary of key findings of this study. First, participants overcame anxiety and set the plans for the teacher professional development and evaluation carefully. Then, the consequences of implementing the teacher professional development and evaluation program resulted in promoting professional conversations, personal professional growth, and effective teaching. Thirdly, participants raised some concerns to address several issues in the implementation of the teacher professional development and evaluation program and expected clear guidelines and rules for the future program. Lastly, the implementation of teacher career ladder program would result in a win-win situation and an elimination of incompetent teachers. Participants expressed their views on the levels of teacher ladder program and how such a program would reward the best and eliminate the worst. Suggestions for teachers, policy makers, and future studies were also provided.
