Abstract

In this study, we considered three roles that kindergarten teachers mainly assume after mid-career: (1) kindergarten teacher (practitioner), (2) preschool organizer, and (3) family member, and clarified the career development process and difficulties from mid-career onward. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with three teachers who had a minimum of 16 years of experience as kindergarten teachers. Factors that supported career development were examined. The career development process and difficulties of each teacher were visualized Trajectory Equifinality Modeling.The results elucidated that career development after mid-career was supported by the following three factors related to roles (1) (2) and (3), respectively: "opportunities to learn and realize personal growth as a practitioner," "change in awareness of position and role within the preschool organization," and "experience of reaffirming oneself as a family member.”
