Through this contribution, we work with the topic of professional identity as a tool for development and personal meaning, which is essential for successful professional preparation. Furthermore, it also has a clear link to the meaning of oneʼs own identity and self-perception, as a profession or career is one of the possible sources of self-confi dence. Professional identity is thus a relevant tool not only for shaping, but also for building and maintaining a professional profi le, which should be part of every profession, as it is related to human integrity or social societal overlap. Professional identity is therefore a central motive of professional training and the performance of professional practice or an aspect of the context of employment/profession. Th e aim of the contribution is to bring and process the knowledge of the students themselves, who are preparing themselves professionally at the Department of Special Education, in order to project the real meaning of professional identity in the given university training of special pedagogues.
