In this article, the issues related to the understanding of the concepts of "values" and "value orientations" of rescuers at the beginning stages of their professional career are considered. The value system of cadets-rescuers is presented as an integrative indicator of the interaction of the social and individual in the personality, with specific forms of personality awareness of the surrounding world. In the real world, the value orientations that are acquired in the process of development will depend on the activities in which the individual is involved. The value structure of a personality is a combination of personality types that are orientated towards the values of adaptation (focus on the values of physical and economic security), socialization (acceptance of social norms and values) and individualization (the desire for self-development and self-realization).
Nowadays, this phenomenon requires more in-depth research due to the fact that personal readiness for professional activity of future rescuers includes a deep understanding of the specifics of the profession, a high level of development of professionally significant qualities, as well as a stable level of identification with the rescuer.
The study of the value orientations of first-year and senior cadets in various life spheres shows that they are fully engaged in their studies and training, aim to improve their education and expand their outlook. First-year cadets are more engaged in social activities. There is a tendency of junior cadets to realize their own social orientation through active social life, a desire to occupy a position in the structure of social life that would ensure closer contact with a certain circle of people and allow them to cooperate with them in public life. The study has shown that at the initial stages of a professional career (during university studies), the formation of certain values can be observed in the formation of the future specialist, as well as the dominance of a value in a particular sphere of life.
