The purpose of the study was to examine the effects of preschool teachers’ qualification (education level, teaching experience, major, and certification) and competency variables (teaching efficacy and teacher-child interaction) on young children’s development (cognition, language, and social development). The data came from 5th Wave of Panel Study on Korean Children (PSKC) from the Korea Institute of Child Care and Education, and the multiple regression analyses as well as Pearson’s correlation analyses were used. The results showed the positive associations between teachers’ competency (teaching efficacy and teacher-child interaction) and child development. However, we did not find significant effects of teachers’ qualification on young children’s development. Based on the results, we proposed a policy implication that teacher qualification needed to be discussed with teacher competency to improve teacher quality.
