DEVELOPMENT OF ADDITIONAL PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION AS A STRATEGICALLY IMPORTANT TASK, CONSIDERING THE CURRENT STATE OF THE LABOR MARKET

Abstract

The paper examines the issues of organizing training in the system of additional professional education related to the rapid development of technologies, including information technologies, and their implementation in production. It is shown that the ongoing changes in the labor market force specialists to constantly improve their educational level, and educational organizations to look for new forms of training and develop new educational products. It has been substantiated that additional professional education has great potential in solving this issue, and it is these structures that can train the necessary specialists for any field of activity and with the necessary competencies in a short time. However, in order for these structures to remain competitive, they also need to change. This should include not only different forms of training (online, classical lessons, mixed forms, the use of modern information technologies, etc.), but also changing the approach to the organization of additional professional education.
