The objectives of the study were: To evaluate the attitude of teachers towards learner oriented teaching learning method, to assess the extent to which assessment for learning was being applied in classroom, and to examine how many instructors were reflective in teaching learning process. The research design of this study was surveying type in which data collected from all colleges of the university. The experimental, control and extraneous population were already exited in the university by default. Thus, HDP graduates were considered as experimental group, while those who didn’t attend an HDP graduated teachers were taken as control group. Teachers with educational /pedagogical background / were considered as extraneous variable because their background could have potential effect on the quality of the data because of which they were excluded from the sample. Students were also part of the study. To collect data, questionnaire, interview, and classroom observations were used. Accordingly, 136 questionnaires were collected and analyzed, six interviews and ten classroom observations were also made. The study finding indicated the shallow impact of HDP training on teaching learning process due to factors contributed by different entities. Thus, it was recommended that rigorous remedial action is needed to be taken by the university.
