Drawing on socio-cultural and post-structural theories, we conceptualize professional agency as achieved by participation in professional practices. We employ our conceptualization in an analysis of a Finnish pilot training that combined initial and continuous training for preschool and primary school teachers. We argue that the practices of reflection and collective enquiry inherent in the model offer a fruitful starting point for further efforts to understand how to support the development of the professional agency of teachers and student teachers simultaneously.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"Keywords u-font-serif\">\n<div id=\"kwrds0010\" class=\"keywords-section\">\n<h4>Keywords<\/h4>\n<div id=\"kwrd0010\" class=\"keyword\">Professional agency, Professional development, Teacher education, Preschool, Primary school<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<div><em>Ukkonen-Mikkola, T. &amp; Varpanen, J.
