In the current conditions of global transformations of the educational space and the rapid devel opment of digital society, the problem of the effectiveness of existing models of advanced training for pedagogical staff becomes urgent. Traditional linear systems, focused on episodic learning and unified aptation to new challenges. A contradiction arises between the standardized offer of educational services and the teacher’s need for flexible, personalized development. This necessitates a scientific rethinking of approaches to organizing postgraduate education and a transition from directive management to the creation of adaptive ecosystems for professional growth.
The aim of the article is the theoretical substantiation and description of the structural-functional modelof an adaptive system of teacher professional development, which integrates external conditions of the educational environment and internal needs of the specialist to ensure their continuous professional improvement.
The main results of the study reveal the essence of the adaptive environment as a complex multi-component system that harmonizes the processes of functioning and development. Six key components of this environment are characterized in detail: architectural (ergonomics and space zoning), material and technical (resource provision and digitalization), educational and methodological (content and andragogical principles), social (culture of interaction and horizontal connections), psychological (emotional climate and burnout prevention), and technological (a set of development tools). Particular attention is paid to the transformation of the role of the teacher, who in this system acts not as an object of influence, but as an autodynamic subject — an agent of change capable of self-diagnosis, designing their own trajectory, and reflection.
The conclusions indicate that building an adaptive system of professional development is a strategic task, the implementation of which requires a systemic approach to modeling the educational space. It is proven that such a system allows bridging the gap between formal training and real pedagogical practice, contributes to the development of teachers’ professional resilience, and improves the quality of education
in general. Prospects for further research are seen in the development of diagnostic tools to assess the effectiveness of each component of the adaptive environment.
