Abstract
The main aim of the teacher study program is to ensure the proper role of teaching practice, which is included in initial teacher training courses.

In terms of activities and methods correction of the continuous teaching practice model for prospective chemistry teachers in Pedagogical study program of 2nd degree “Educational Chemistry” which would ensure the creation of a competent chemistry teacher (active and innovative).The main result of the study is a list of potential competencies by prospective chemistry teachers using innovative teaching methods. These competencies can be developed and produced in the performance of activities defned by using continuous teaching practice, particularly in the areas of testing and assessment, experiential and collaborative learning, and experimental (laboratory and feld) work. Each of these components is separately assessed by activity and competence.
