Abstract

The purpose of professional training of any specialist should be to form a professionally competent, creative personality. The professional competence of a modern specialist (as a readiness to perform their official and professional duties at a high professional level in accordance with modern theoretical and practical achievements and experience, close to international requirements and standards) should be considered in the unity of its three components: motivational and value, subject and practical, and self-regulatory and volitional, which are also aspects of personality. Based on the generalization of literature sources on the research problem, we have determined the structure of PC of future specialists, which has the following components: competence in the field of professional activity; competence in other areas of professional activity; information and computer competence; communicative competence; foreign language communicative competence; competence in the field of self-determination and self-regulation); production and activity competence.
