The purpose of this study is to investigate the perceptions of beginning teachers on preservice teacher education. Through a survey, 465 beginning teachers working in randomly selected provinces of Turkey assessed the benefits of their pre-service programs. For data analysis, descriptive and inferential statistics were used. The results of the study indicated that the participant teachers’ perceptions on their pre-service trainings were not positive and that these perceptions changed significantly by the type of faculty they graduated from, the amount of practice teaching they did during their pre-service years, the existence of a mentor teacher as a part of practice teaching done during pre-service years, and their teaching fields
