description The relation between teachers’ experience, foreground and the intentions of professional development programs (PDP) has been investigated in a Danish case, where a balance between top-down and bottom-up processes intended to integrate local and individual perspectives of the participating teachers in the overall program.

Three different participation trajectories were found: – Increasingly convergent entangling trajectory – Mutually enriching but distinctly parallel personal and systemic trajectory – Open-ended trajectory, that keeps different career options open.
