This study aims to reveal the level of professional competence among physics teachers in Misan Governorate. To achieve the study objectives, three null hypotheses were formulated:
1. There is no statistically significant difference at the significance level (0.05) between the average scores of the study sample on the professional competence scale and the hypothetical mean.
2. There is no statistically significant difference at the significance level (0.05) between the average scores of the study sample on the professional competence scale according to gender.
3. There is no statistically significant difference at the significance level (0.05) between the average scores of the study sample on the professional competence scale according to years of experience. To achieve the study objectives, the researcher used the descriptive survey method and randomly selected a sample representing the original population, totaling (231) teachers, from physics teachers in the Directorate of Education in Misan Governorate. The researcher relied on a professional competence test consisting of three parts:
The first part is an objective test that measures scientific competence, consisting of (20) multiple-choice questions with four alternatives.
