The target audience is women who wish or are forced to change their occupation due to a professional crisis situation. Study design: research paper. An expert evaluation of the Didactic Model of Crisis Management was performed in Latvia May to June 2015. The model was developed and approbated during the period between June 2014 and June 2015. To achieve the research aims, an expert evaluation of the didactic model for managing a professional crisis was performed. The research was conducted at the Latvia University of Agriculture, Institute of Education and Home Economics Doctoral programme of pedagogy. All the experts involved in the research were selected among professionals who worked in Latvia and had a length of service of more than 10 years. All five experts were experienced in pedagogy and career counselling. Kendall’s W was used to identify concordance among the experts.

On the result the Didactic Model of Crisis Management for Women in Professional Crisis Situations was experimentally approbated, and methodology created on the basis of research on women’s career change was integrated; the methodology involves a customer development programme for career change of women in professional crisis situations. The model was evaluated by the experts.

Using the Didactic Model of Crisis Management for Women in Professional Crisis Situations as a scientifically justified basis (based on the principle of gender conformity) and a set of didactic preconditions (education content, kinds of counselling, techniques of counselling), it is possible to contribute to building various skills in women who experience career crisis (career management, decision-making, communication, computer skills, skills to adapt to new circumstances, etc.), thus providing professional counselling for their career support through informing, educating and counselling them on the basis of progressive techniques (e-counselling, e-mentorism).
