Summary/Abstract: This paper attempts to map the state of character education at selected faculties of education in the Czech Republic. The aim of the study was to analyze courses from education and psychology modules of teacher training study programmes to find out to what extent the courses match the prototype of character education designed by McGrath (2018). Qualitative content analysis of the course descriptions showed that only a small number of the courses match the prototype in all the criteria, but many courses contain several aspects of character education.
