Professors aren't "trained". If you're not an excellent teacher you have no business being a professor. You're thinking "researcher".

Getting tenure is insanely difficult, and has approximately zero to do with teaching ability. (It's different for adjuncts, lecturers, others who are hired to teach. But they have different titles.)
