Nowadays one of the important tasks of education, including vocational education, is to help to every human as an individual of the society, to a company as an organization and to the society on the whole get on with existing changes, accept them and find opportunities for self-development, thus facilitating also competitiveness. Knowledge is the value that turns into good investment into the development of society, a company and each specialist from the present and future perspective. Therefore, many IT companies become knowledge organizations and at the same time – the educational environment for the programmers working at such companies. Alongside with the information society, the context of knowledge society also becomes topical. On the basis of ecological approach and synergetic approach in the educational sciences, own experience, as well as the results of the research performed earlier the authors of the article have developed “The Environmental Model of Programmer’s Professional Self-Development” that provides a wide range of perspectives for the interdisciplinary research. The aim of the article: to substantiate the contexts of the multilevel environment of a programmer’s professional development. The developed model ensures the wholeness view regarding the programmer’s professional self-development in his/her multilevel and multi-contextual environment, where there are both aspects important: 1) the environment of an IT company, which is not only the environment of a programmer’s professional performance, but also the educational environment – a knowledge organization; 2) two important contexts of society as social environment: information society and knowledge society. A programmer’s professional self-development through learning is at the centre of this model, because the programmer is an integral part of an IT company and also of all society on the whole.
