摘要

本研究旨在探討資深教保人員之專業信念及其形塑歷程。除了突顯資深教保人員對教保界的重要性與價值，另一方面，欲提供給想要從事教職的後輩有一正面的職涯規劃與願景。
本研究採質性研究方法，透過文獻探討、深入訪談四位資深教保人員及相關文件蒐集等方式採集資料，並將所有資料透過編碼方式分析，加上研究者之詮釋，研究結果如下：
壹、資深教保人員之專業工作均已經歷專業成長的階段：求生期－強化期－求新期－成熟期。

貳、資深教保人員之專業信念在專業知能、專業自主、專業認同、專業成長、專業服務、專業倫理等六大面向均有相關之優良表現事蹟。

参、資深教保人員專業信念轉變之歷程有以下的共通點：大多經歷教學法的轉型、學校教育是重塑專業信念最佳的環境、重要他人或事件的影響讓專業信念之轉變更具意義。

肆、形塑資深教保人員專業信念之原因是由多項因素交互影響，包括個人因素（人格特質、專業養成教育及家庭）、環境因素(學校類型、學生特質、園長領導）及重要他人或事件之影響。

最後，本研究針對即將踏入教職工作與現職教保人員、園所以及未來研究三方面提出相關建議。
