Several studies believe that the use of national standards as a benchmark for teacher quality can align education services to achieve national goals. In addition, the number of years of teaching experience can determine teacher productivity during the course of their profession. This article explores the results of developing a teacher competency measurement instrument based on the Indonesian national standards and evaluating teacher competency based on gender, grade, and working period. To assess teacher competency, 277 Physical Education (PE) teachers completed an online survey at http://risetpjokindonesia.com/. The measurement results were analyzed using confirmatory factor analysis and Cronbach's alpha to test validity and reliability. A T-test and one-way ANOVA were used to evaluate teacher competency based on gender, grade, and working period. The findings show that the measurements are valid and reliable, allowing for their application in future research. Gender, grade, and working period were found to affect teacher competency. The development of teacher competency based on working period provides input in the form of accuracy in the teacher’s professional development and the limitation of the teacher’s productive period in carrying out his or her profession. © 2022, Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta (Yogyakarta State University).
