This research was done to determine the relationship between the attitudes of class teacher candidates towards the life knowledge teaching course and the perceptions of self-capacity. Based on the relational scan model, the study group of this study consists of 464 teachers candidates who studied in the 3rd and 4th classes of Yozgat Bozok University, Kafkas University, Army University, Artvin Çoruh University and Trabzon University class education in the 2018 - 2019 educational-educational year. The appropriate sample method has been used to determine the sample group of the study. The data of the research was collected with the "Lifetime Knowledge Teaching Attitude Scale" developed by Sarikaya, Özgöl and Yılar (2017) and the "Lifetime Knowledge Teaching Self-Competence Scale" developed by Bektaş (2007a). The SPSS software has been used for the processing of these data. According to the analyses made; the study group has found that the attitudes towards the life knowledge teaching course are high, that there is a meaningful differentiation in favour of the female teacher candidates according to the gender variable and that the life knowledge teaching course they receive in the faculty is sufficient, that there is no meaningful differentiation in favour of the class level and the university variable they see, and that there is no meaningful differentiation in favour of those who receive the life knowledge teaching course. It is also found that the candidates have a high perception of self-capacity towards the life knowledge teaching course, gender, life knowledge teaching course they receive in the faculty and that there is a meaningful differentiation according to the university variable that is studied, and there is no meaningful differentiation according to the class level variable. It has been found that there is a meaningful relationship in the positive direction between the candidates' attitudes towards the life knowledge teaching course and their perceptions of self-capacity.
