Inspectors are those appointed by governments at all levels，with legal procedures，to oversee，inspect，guide and evaluate the performance of lower-level administrative departments and schools at all levels within their jurisdictions. Inspector training is a proper and inevitable choice to build a skilled workforce. The survey found that the governments at all levels took the inspector training as the entry point to develop the supervision team，and had made progress in training opportunities，contents and methods. However，a number of challenges remain，such as，inadequate institutional system and support mechanism，failure to implement requirements，lack of follow-up evaluation，and poor willingness to participate in training programs. To enhance the strength，breadth，depth，precision and effectiveness of inspector training，it is essential to strengthen the government’s responsibility for overall planning. In addition，training institutions should make efforts to ensure quality while the inspectors should increase intrinsic motivation to learn.
