Today, the native system of out-of-school education is based on his- torically determined traditions of training and education of younger generation created by representatives of different

communities of Ukraine, and on the experience of many generations, on social and family values, ideas, attitudes, be- liefs and ideals. It is implemented by out-of-school educational institutions, creative children’s and youth organizations

and associations, and is based on the principle of voluntary choice of the types of institutions and activities. Out-of- school education deals with the issues of emotional, physical and intellectual development of a person, development of

his/her competences. At the same time the out-of-school education facilitates the ensuring of the individual needs in creative self-realization, socialization, involving in public relations, joining the wide world. Therefore, the problem of training of pedagogical workers of out-of-school educational institutions is relevant today. In the process of training teachers for working in out-of-school educational institutions the question of the requirements for personality traits of a teacher as an educator is important. In accordance with the structure of pedagogical work, traits of humanity are the

most valuable. They are kindness, compassion, honesty, sincerity, tolerance, empathy, ability for controlling one’s men- tal condition. Very often the ignorance of the traditions and customs of the various ethnic communities can cause some

misunderstandings and intolerant behaviour. In order to avoid inter-ethnic conflicts in a group, the cause of which may be these circumstances, the training “The Situation of Cultural Assimilator” was developed for teachers.
