With the development of technology, it has enabled education to get rid of the traditional structure and to be accessed independently of place and at any time. In this way, individuals have had the opportunity to make their own development in line with their careers and professions. In this respect, the opinions of individuals studying at the faculty of education and pedagogical formation education about this process are very important. The aim of this research is to measure the attitudes of pre-service teachers studying at the faculty of education and pedagogical formation education towards distance education. In this research, ‘Attitude Scale towards Distance Education’ was used. Survey model, one of the descriptive research methods, was used in the study. The sample of the study consisted of 298 students studying at faculty of education and pedagogical formation education at a state university. The data collected in the study were analyzed with SPSS. After the data were checked whether the data were normally distributed or not and it was seen that the data showed a normal distribution. Considering the sub-problems of the research, the data were analysed by statistical methods such as mean, t-test and standard deviation tests. In the study, it was determined that pre-service teachers' attitudes towards distance education were at a good level. In addition, a statistically significant difference was found between the pre-service teacher at the faculty of education and pedagogical formation education in terms of gender, learning groups and working status.
