A deductive method of data analysiscombining with the selection of selected sources was used, focusing on descriptive and newimplementation.Evidence-based Facts: The exploration carried out revealed that the considered forms of edu-cation function independently as well as interpenetrate each other, creating a common groundfor the emergence of teacher empowerment, which is the impulse for the emergence of a newpersonal-team structure in the educational process.Summary: The theoretical and exploratory analyses made show a glimpse that the applicationin various forms of education of teacher empowerment and its assumptions together with thePERFORM model is an alternative way of combining educational theory and practice repre-senting a different remedy of professional functioning.
