During the study of the special discipline by bachelors, next pedagogical conditions were implemented: students’ understanding of the personal significance of social intelligence for professional activities in the field of social work; formation of theoretical social knowledge and practical skills of cooperation, social perception and interaction; use of active training methods, project activities and communication practices in educational and extracurricular activities; students’ mastery of expressive speech skills for explanation and persuasion within subject-subject interaction. The fulfillment of these conditions ensured the dynamics of the development of the social intelligence of future bachelors of co-work, as evidenced by the study conducted using the method of J.
