The results from the study show that the multi-dimensional 21st-century skills of teachers candidates are lower than average, and the creative thinking tendencies are higher than average. The variable is multi-dimensional, with a variety of variables. It has been determined that in the century skills there are significant differences according to gender, department and class level they study.
