The article raises the problem of professional self-determination of students in modern conditions. It reveals the important role of professional self-determination in the educational work of a modern school, where the center is the personality of the student with his growing needs, cognitive interests, and abilities. The main pedagogical principles that constitute the methodological basis of professional self-determination of students in modern conditions: the principle of personality-oriented education; the principle of differentiation and individualization of education; principle of advanced education. The main goal of professional self-determination is determined - to gradually build up a student’s internal readiness to plan, adjust and realize the prospects of their development (professional, life and personality) independently and consciously.
