Purpose: To search for training methods for specialists in industrial safety, environmental and occupational safety and health in conditions of insufficient (or absent) laboratory support and to study the relationship between the student learning approach and acquired competencies. Design/methodology/approach: To study modern advances in industrial safety, environmental and occupational safety and health and training methods for specialists a systematic literature review approach has been used. For publications from 2017, queries were asked through keywords and safety related topics. To relationship study between the student learning approach and acquired competencies a student survey on random sampling has been used. A total of 112 students of the 3rd and 4th year of study at the university were interviewed. Findings: The results of the survey showed that the students’ number who simultaneously successfully answered theoretical questions and completed practical tasks is 33.8% from the group with theoretical training and 75% from the group that was trained in the workplace. The relationship between the groups with a visit to the existing enterprise and acquired competencies was justified by the association coefficient and contingency coefficient that are 0.7 and 0.4 respectively. Research limitations/implications: A student’s survey was conducted at only one university. Questions were asked only according to the curriculum of the course “Labour Protection”. No survey for other training courses conducted. Practical implications: The research results are reasonable and can be applied at universities to improve the educational process of training specialists. Originality/value: It was proposed that students be trained using existing enterprises as a laboratory base and by the methods of statistics mathematical processing was substantiated the proposal feasibility.
The necessity of practical use of the definition of "competitive development of subjects of the agribusiness" were proved and determined in the work. The theoretical essence of this concept allows it to be understood as a type of development, which, while maintaining the necessary level of economic efficiency and improving market positions in a competitive environment, is capable to shape the potential of increasing the competitiveness level in the long run through the use of strategies and the instruments of management strategies which oriented, first of all, on the formation of competitive advantages. It was proved that the provision of competitive development is possible through the introduction of strategic management tools, which suggests an understanding of the strategy as an integrated model of a specific long-term development direction. The principles of the formation of strategic management, which include guides of activity, both in the internal environment of the enterprise and in the external, were generalized and formed on the basis of the integrated methodological approach; approaches to managing competitiveness through the formation of certain competitive advantages; levels of adaptation of separate approaches and models, which will differ according to the fields of activity of the subject; general strategies, which are specified for the specifics of individual situational approaches in functional and operational load; a methodological approach based on the formation of strategic zones of economic activity of the subject of agribusiness, as well as on obtaining competitive advantages through the use of various innovative strategies of agribusiness. The concepts of generation, implementation, realization of strategic management of competitive development of subjects of the agribusiness were substantiated on the basis of the use of elements, components and tools of the possibilities of introducing logistic and marketing activities to the main production and commercial activity of economic entities in the field of agrarian production.
