The Contract Education as a Goal-oriented System of Activity

Abstract

The aim of the work is an application of the theory of Goal-oriented System of Activity to analysis and organization of effective contract targeted training at higher education institutions. The organization of targeted training of specialists is considered as one of the components of public administration to address staff problems in various regions and sectors of the economy in the context of rapidly changing demands of society, to implement promising youth policy and mitigate demographic problems. An algorithmic chain of meaningful actions is con structed on the basis of the methodology of the Goal-oriented System of Activity, which takes into account the real state of human, intellectual, material and economic resources and enables to minimize existing contradictions and, accordingly, ensure the establishment of partnerships between all interested participants in the process of targeted training (government agencies, employers, higher education institutions and students). As an example, four stages of contract teacher training have been considered.

Model of integration of competencies in a professionally-oriented education

“…The current state in the field of education does not yet initiate an active role of universities, shifting the solution of the problem of coordinated choice onto students whose secondary (industrial) employment is formed quite spontaneously [3]. Within the framework of the identified trend there is an urgent need to change the role of universities in the formation of professional competencies of future specialists [4], as well as to change the models and technologies for the formation of additional professional competencies [5,6], and finally, change the organizational and infrastructure relations with the basic representatives of the labor market within the educational models of universities [7][8][9].…”
