DESIGNING BASIC EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS, TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE REQUIREMENTS OF PROFESSIONAL STANDARDS OF ACTIVITY (WITH REFERENCE TO A MARITIME EDUCATIONAL ORGANIZATION)

Abstract

This paper discusses possibilities of pedagogical design for streamlining the educational process and effective management of the quality of graduate training. Based on the analysis of contradictions in the approaches to the organization of the educational process in maritime educational organizations, the authors proposed a theoretical model of professional training of a marine specialist. As the main components of this model, the authors distinguish the components “content of education”, “individual educational trajectory” and “monitoring.” It is argued that the integrity of the professional training system for a marine specialist is ensured by the creation of a unified field of psychological and pedagogical support of the educational process from all interested person. The authors argue that the mobility of graduates of maritime educational organizations and their competitiveness in the world market of employers-shipowners existed long before the modernization of the Russian educational system and Russia’s accession to the Bologna process. The authors believe that this circumstance is associated with the requirements of the International STCW Convention, which is an international professional standard for the activities of ship specialists, the essential characteristics of which were initially formulated in the competence-based approach. The authors hope that the practical implementation of the proposed model, taking into account international and national professional standards, will ensure the optimal achievement of the final professional competence of graduates of any field of study.
