Abstract

The article reveals possibilities of training students at higher educational institutions of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia using innovative methods of training for their successful performance of official duties in operational-search units of internal affairs bodies. The authors consider features of conducting classroom classes: lectures, seminars and practical lessons with the participation of cadets studying in the specialty “Law Enforcement”, specialization “Operational-Search Activities”. These types of classes are based on the model of the criminal investigation officer and the need to form competencies for his practical activities in the internal affairs bodies. The authors conclude that the use of innovative teaching methods by teachers in lectures, seminars and practical classes, combined with various non-auditing types of work, allows them to prepare students for practical activities in the operational and investigative units of the criminal investigation.
