This paper is oriented to the integrated learning bill for college teachers and integrates blockchain technology to construct a high-security and credibility assessment system for college teachers’ professional competence development.

The F-values of teachers in different subject areas in the overall test of teacher professional development did not reach a significant level (2.11, 0.24, 0.20, and 0.42, respectively). In the correlation test, blockchain technology was significantly and positively correlated with the quality of teachers’ professional development (p<0.05). The validity of the professional development assessment system for college teachers that incorporates blockchain technology is confirmed by this study.
