The most distinctive feature of the Institute is a very positive legacy of our College days and that is the care and support our staff give to our students. At the same time, we add significant value to our students' knowledge, skills and attitudes.

Our key strengths can be summed up as follows. We provide novice and serving teachers with an education that ensures our students have a thorough understanding of their subjects - to a level which allows them to teach others proficiently. They acquire the knowledge and skills to impart their knowledge to others, the ability to handle complex and unforeseen situations, and an awareness of their moral obligations as professional teachers in the nurturing of Hong Kong's future generations.
