Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to present the system of initial education of preschool teachers and the preschool system of education in the Republic of Slovenia. This article actually results from the study tour implemented at the Pedagogical Faculty in Maribor and the visit to the Pedagogical Faculties in Ljubljana and Koper. During the study tour the Slovenian pre-school system was analysed by visiting several preschools. The initial education of preschool teachers consists of two components: academic and professional. The employability of graduates is measured by the flexibility of their qualifications through a range of generic competences and subject specific competences, which are tied to a series of work processes, or which enable the effective expansion of this series of competencies. The structure of studies, which includes two levels - undergraduate and graduate or master studies assumes two levels of competence or learning outcomes, and thus two levels of professional qualifications. In this new system, the master’s degree is no longer just an academic qualification aimed almost exclusively at a transition to doctoral studies, as was the case when few candidates enrolled in such studies.
The methods of research applied were the descriptive-explicative method in order to describe and explain the current situation in the preschool system and the method of theoretical analysis in order to perform content analysis of the system of education and professional development of the educational staff for preschool education.
