          Abstract

          This chapter delves into the myriad ways tertiary education systems can foster the growth and empowerment of educators skills. It argues that the key to cultivating practical, resilient, and innovative teachers lies in adopting transformative approaches to their professional development. Initially, it explores the concept of educator empowerment, defining it as the process through which teachers gain the skills, knowledge, and confidence to lead innovative and impactful learning experiences. The chapter then examines various pedagogical innovations and their integration into teacher education programs, including the use of technology, emphasis on digital literacy, and adoption of reflective practice methodologies. It highlights the importance of collaborative learning communities among educators for sharing best practices and support and discusses strategies for promoting inclusive education. The chapter emphasizes the need for accessible, relevant, ongoing learning opportunities and explores models that prioritize active learning, peer mentoring, and leadership development. It concludes by presenting case studies and examples of successful implementation of these approaches, serving as inspiration and practical guidance for educators, administrators, and policymakers.
