This study aimed to identify the opportunities and challenges in the field of training in the universities from the viewpoint of the Jordanian academics who work in the Jordanian universities. The study used the social survey method in a random sample method with a sample of (516) from the population of the study which is comprised of (1321) from all Jordanian academics with PhD in the different regions in the Kingdom. (307) of the sample are academics who work in the public universities, while (209) are academics working in the private universities. The study revealed a set of results. The most prominent of which are the following: more than half of the academics (58%) live in the central region. 54.8% have obtained a PhD at their own expense. (46.5%) were not assigned to any administrative work in the university where they work. (60.1%) participated in scientific conferences. The overall agreement rate on all the items of the field of opportunities and challenges in the field of training was (17.3%), compared to (38.2) % who disagreed and (44.5%) who agreed to some extent. Among the most important recommendations of the study is to find specialized programs for Jordanian academics to train them on administrative skills and to find the appropriate field, support and time for that. Moreover, the study recommended to increase cooperation with foreign universities and allow academics to train and learn about different cultures and academic environments.
