Abstract
There seems to be a disparity in the lifelong learning strategies of teachers in Austria. After a quick glance at teachers’ motivation for selecting a specific seminar, the result is that teachers are willing to attend seminars, but do not really find appropriate ones. In many cases, teachers are free to make their own choices when it comes to further training so they choose the seminar which best fits their personal interests. The subject of this ongoing research is to develop a model, which visualises teachers’ personal areas of profession. The main aim is to improve teachers’ professional development against the background of strategies of the state educational authorities. This should be achieved by an appropriate offer of seminar by the University Colleges of Teacher Educations, which are responsible for the teachers’ further educational opportunities.
