Based on an educational experience in the training of secondary school, social education and art therapy educators - the personal artistic autoethnography in the framework of the artist's book and other creative languages - the potential of arts-based methodologies as an autoethnographic approach in the training of the teaching and care professions is analysed. From an arts-based research, a/r/tography and ethnographic perspective, the question "why did I choose this profession?" acts as a generator of the creative-narrative-research process that opens up two other questions: who are we? and what has brought us here? The article reviews the importance of the auto-ethnographic construction in inicial training as an element that promotes self-reflection of identity as future education and care professionals, and then links it to arts-based methodologies that foster symbolic and non-verbal elements, which are essential in education. After several academic years applying this methodology in training, the sample analyses part of alumni results in two phases: one after the pandemic, in 2020, of incorporation into the classroom in blended learning, and another in the current academic year 23-24, revealing itself as a methodology that promotes thinking about the personal from a social and cultural context; metaphorical thinking and the relationship with others as elements of reflection on professional identity; as well as reflection on the limits and possibilities of the setting and roles within the framework of work and intervention.
