Abstract
Problem of teacher education quality has been discussed in Lithuania frequently over last twenty years by scholars, politicians, administrators, employers, teacher educators and teachers themselves. Not an exception is arts teacher education. Our purpose in this study is to discuss coherence between expectations of postgraduate arts education study programme management and social partners. Seeking to answer questions methods of literature review, autoetnography, interview and survey of social partners were applied. The results of the research show that programme management expects postgraduate arts education studies to deepen competences to plan, implement, research, evaluate and improve content of arts education in various types of formal and non-formal educational institutions while graduates are disposed for lifelong learning and seeking new knowledge in more abstract way. Employers outline need of arts education teacher as a leader, active organizer, school community bringer and culture bearer.
