Starościak Wojciech, Dębska Urszula, Guła-Kubiszewska Halina, Designing professional career by students – physical education teachers. „Kultura – Społeczeństwo – Edukacja” nr 2(14) 2018, Poznań 2018, pp. 183–203, Adam Mickiewicz University Press. ISSN 2300-0422. DOI 10.14746/kse.2018.14.14. The study identified physical education students’ opinions about and vision of personal career. It was conducted with a questionnaire designed by A. Cybal-Michalska for planning career prospects and career development in modern society by academic youth. Results demonstrate the professional expectations of the sample to be largely met. Students of the University School of Physical Education in Wroclaw are oriented towards individualistic and collectivistic values to a similar extent. Both groups are moderately satisfied with study choices and have a realistic outlook on the difficulties in finding a job consistent withtheir education. They assess the prospect of a satisfactory career on an equally moderate level, although individualist-oriented students perceive significantly fewer ways of achieving professional success. Collectivistic students emphasize values characteristic of a safe future and working with people and for people. Individualistic students are geared towards innovative and creative activities. Students perceive their careers in the psychological dimension, and select lifestyle and professionalism as the lead guides in career development.

No industry seems to change as much or as quickly as the information technology (IT) marketplace. The skills necessary to be a successful professional in this industry change as the technology changes and as one advances through a career. The results of prior research are used to develop a field study of IT professionals’ skill sets throughout their careers. Our findings suggest that IT professionals need to have different technical skills as their careers progress, and that; in fact, they do have different technical skills at different stages in their careers.

The process of standardization of education is determined by the need to create, on the one hand, unified, and on the other hand, distinctive only to the certain field of knowledge/specialty components, which clearly define the lists of competencies of graduates and expected learning outcomes. This creates the basic mechanisms for developing a wide variety of educational programmers run at higher educational institutions as a basis for training a new generation of specialists with higher education, including pedagogical education, in accordance with the requests of students seen as customers of educational services (internal stakeholders) and employers (external stakeholders). Therefore, educational standards are an essential element of any national education system, the type of which is determined by political, socio-economic conditions, traditions of a particular country and so on. Ukraine, which is no exception, seeks to integrate with the European research and educational space with their high standards in science and education.
