Abstract: It is suggested a model of the situation of the vocational choice expressed by the configurator of dual representations built on two pairs of foreshortenings: “external”Ainternal” and “needs” “possibilities” which are formed at the intersection of four dispositions of choice (“I want” reflecting the needs of an individual, “I can” reflects the possibilities of an individual, “It is necessary” reflecting the needs of the society, “It is possible” reflects the society’s ability). Each disposition serves both a private criterion for choosing a profession and an identifier of four professions which an individual wants or can master and the society needs and can teach him. The study deals with an algorithm for the formation of such a model which is a gradual settlement of the conflict between the needs and capabilities of the individual and society.
