DESIGNING THE PROCESS OF CONTINUING EDUCATION ON THE BASIS OF A MODERN UNIVERSITY

Abstract

Professional readiness and competitiveness of future teachers in the labor market are strategic guidelines for pedagogical universities today. The structure of student training in the system of pedagogical education is a target object, since it implicitly contains procedural components that need to be coordinated not only with the changing social order of the university, but also with all the variety of factors of the modern social environment. The requirements of employers in the field of professionalism of graduates of a pedagogical university are concentrated in the field of practical preparedness of future employees, the formation of their real ideas about working in an educational organization, the correlation of academic and applied components of readiness. At the same time, the education system itself, being in constant motion and development, requires new approaches to the design and implementation of nonlinear, not limited in time and space, suitable for the rapid transformation of models of professional training of students. The authors of the paper propose a three-dimensional model of continuous professional training of future teachers at the university and mentoring support at the place of employment. The model is implemented in the planes of academic training at the university, practical training in educational organizations, self-training during three stages: professional adaptation, vocational training, regular practical professional activity. The model is applicable in the conditions of professional pedagogical education to bring employers’ requests closer to the models of classical pedagogical education and the organization of continuous pedagogical education in the mentoring system.
