Abstract.
The paper addresses the identification and description of the structure of professional orientation for future psychologists studying at correspondence and full-time departments for baccalaureate/master’s degree, as well as the determination of the value and motivation components in it. The research aims to examine the value and motivation components in the structure of the professional orientation of future psychologists for different courses, forms and levels of professional education.

Zamfir, the method of diagnosing value orientations by S. Schwartz, the method of “Career Anchors” by E. Shein, and methods of mathematical-statistical processing and interpretation of data.
Research results. An empirical study of the professional orientation of future psychologists enrolled on different courses and choosing various forms of education has revealed the specific features of the value and motivation components in the structure of professional orientation, and indicated that the identified hierarchy of motives is a personality characteristic of a student majoring in Psychology.
Conclusion. This empirical research has made it possible to formulate a conclusion about the significance of the value and motivation components in the structure of the professional orientation of the personality of future psychologists, as well as the importance of the educational process organization, in which professional motives dominate in the student’s motivational structure. Prospects for further research are associated with an identification of the relationship between the value-motivation components of the professional orientation of future psychologists and their employment.
