In the situation of increasing attention of society and the state to the educational component of the educational process, the insufficient level of formation of the personal and professional position of teachers as educators is obvious. This position, along with competence, becomes one of the markers of the quality of professional training of future teachers. The role of educational institutions of higher education in the formation of the student's position as a future specialist is underestimated, which entails a number of deformations and negative consequences. The socio-pedagogical conditions that ensure the effectiveness of formative influences on the personal and professional development of future teachers as educators are also taken into account to an incomplete extent. The purpose of the study is to identify the socio-pedagogical determinants of the formation of the personal-professional position of future teachers as educators. Materials and methods: the paper uses the results of the analysis, generalization and systematization of domestic theories of education, professional education of future teachers. The most significant determinants are identified and ranked based on the results of a survey of students of the Faculty of Humanities of the Voronezh State Pedagogical University (83 students studying undergraduate and graduate programs). The basic methodological approaches are personal-activity and socio-pedagogical. As a result of the research, it is argued that the formation of the personal-professional position of future teachers as educators is a complex process in terms of meaning, content and activity. Its effectiveness is possible only in the presence of a wide range of socio-pedagogical conditions that provide it, the basic core of which is socio-pedagogical determinants. In accordance with the components of the personal and professional position, the most significant socio-pedagogical determinants of the formation of the personal-professional position of the future teacher are identified. Ranking the results of the selection of significant determinants by students allows us to conclude that certain components of the personal-professional position (value, target, ethical, reflexive) are underestimated by students due to insufficient attention to these aspects of professional training.
