SEARCH FOR ORGANIZATIONAL AND METHODOLOGICAL CAPABILITIES OF HIGHER EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS IN UKRAINE TO IMPLEMENT THE PRINCIPLES OF DUAL EDUCATION

Опис

The topicality of the study may be seen in the expansion of practice-oriented higher
education, the desire of many educational institutions to train professionals whose level meets
the contemporary requirements of the labor market, as well as the necessity to find opportunities
for rapid employment of graduates. The aim of the study is to analyze the body of research on
the possibilities and effects of the introduction of dual education. Research methods include
analysis, generalization, systematization of scientific achievements, experience and results of
empirical studies of Ukrainian and foreign scholars. The main research results, which form the
novelty of our study, include the list of organizational and methodological capabilities of higher
educational institutions: introduction of disciplines whose programs are focused on the dual
model of learning; organization of professional (undergraduate) practical training; using the
resource for conducting practical parts of term and diploma papers in the process of real work;
socio-cultural activity of students (their involvement in social projects, work in NGOs,
volunteering); internships in the specialty. The identified effects of organizing the educational
process with regard to the principles of dual learning (increasing academic performance,
development of a number of cognitive skills, soft skills, as well as sustained interest in
continuing education, including master programs) emphasize the need for further systematic
research aimed at solving this issue.
