Abstract Faculty professional development (FPD) is the systematic, scientific and integrated development that meets both organizational requirements and individual needs. FPD contains the five dimensions of professional emotion, professional ideas, professional ethics, professional knowledge and professional competence, and it takes on the look of an iceberg structure. Among the five, professional emotion, professional ideas and professional ethics are implicit while professional knowledge and professional competence are explicit. The implicit and explicit parts coexist and affect each other. The implicit part plays a decisive role in FPD and the explicit part plays a motile counteractive role to the implicit part. Faculty professional development is promoted by the positive interaction of the two parts.
