Results showed that majority of the respondents were male, 20-30 years old, serving the university for 16 years and above, and bachelor’s degree holders. The Chinese technological college teachers agreed on all the indicators under optimization of faculty evaluation particularly pay incentive aspect. In terms of job satisfaction, the respondents agreed on all the indicators giving high regard to advancement. The respondents also agreed on some of the items under school working conditions giving more importance to teacher cooperation but disagreed on school resources and teacher workload. In addition, there exists no significant difference of responses on optimization of faculty evaluation, teacher job satisfaction and school working condition when grouped according to profile variables. Also, there were a highly significant relationships among the three variables. This implies that faculty members were more likely to be motivated, productive, and satisfied with their careers. In the end, a professional development plan was proposed to enhance the optimization of faculty evaluation, job satisfaction and school working conditions among Chinese higher vocational college teachers. Sound and efficient teacher evaluation is an important support for the high-quality development of higher vocational colleges. Therefore, the construction and optimization of the teacher evaluation system should be the key project to promote the high-quality development of higher vocational colleges.
