This study was intended to investigate the current needs of continuous professional development viewed from the eyes of novice and experienced teachers in Malang senior high schools. The study was conducted through a descriptive survey study. The results identified some similarities and differences of needs between the novice and experienced teachers. Based on the order of importance, novice teachers agree that they need professional development in (1) knowledge and understanding of learner’s characteristics and (2) pedagogical competencies in teaching the subject field, (3) knowledge about curriculum or syllabus, (4) teacher’s communication skill in the classroom, and (5) teaching and learning approaches. Meanwhile, the experienced teachers need CPD about (1) knowledge and understanding of learner’s characteristics, (2) pedagogical competencies in the subject, (3) Information and Communication Technology, (4) students’ evaluation and assessment, and (5) teaching and learning approaches. Knowing the findings above, policy makers are suggested to arrange CPD programs based on the teachers’ needs and learning styles.
