Abstract

Cjeloživotno učenje i obrazovanje predstavljaju osnovnu pretpostavku za prilagodbu
pojedinca današnjem društvu koji se stalno mijenja. Takvi koncepti predstavljaju važnost
usvajanja i usavršavanja kompetencija koje će pojedincu koristiti za njegov osobni i
profesionalni razvoj, ali i za doprinos društvenoj zajednici. Živimo u društvu koji se
kontinuirano mijenja te znanja i vještine koje usvajamo u obitelji, vrtiću ili školi nisu dovoljni
za funkcioniranje u današnjem društvu. Potrebno je stalno učenje, usvajanje znanja te vlastito
usavršavanje. U odgojno – obrazovnom procesu, rad s djecom predškolske dobi zahtijeva
potpunu posvećenost i kreativnost, stoga odgojno – obrazovni proces zahtjeva kontinuirano
mijenjanje i usavršavanje kako samog pojedinca tako i cjelokupne odgojno – obrazovne prakse.
U empirijskom dijelu rada korištena je kvantitativna metodologija, a podaci su prikupljeni
anketiranjem odgajatelja. Istraživanje je provedeno putem google forms ankete putem koje je
ispitano je 276 sudionika. Rezultati istraživanja prikazuju kako većina ispitanika (M=4,28)
smatra kako je profesionalno stručno usavršavanje važno za njihovu profesiju i kasniji
profesionalni rast i razvoj. Istraživanje je usmjereno na važnost profesionalnog razvoja kod
odgajatelja bez obzira na dob, radni staž i razinu stručne spreme
