ПОДГОТОВКА КАДРОВ ДЛЯ АГРОПРОМЫШЛЕННОГО КОМПЛЕКСА В СИСТЕМЕ НЕПРЕРЫВНОГО ПРОФЕССИОНАЛЬНОГО ОБРАЗОВАНИЯ

Abstract

The agro-industrial sector is currently experiencing a shortage of personnel. Despite the fact that agriculture has radically changed in terms of technologies and methods of production, many people still consider farm-related jobs tedious, consumptive, monotonous, and thus unattractive. Unmotivated schoolchildren with low USE scores often enter agricultural universities. “Agroclasses” is one of the career guidance areas aimed at motivating schoolchildren and forming their readiness for a conscious choice of an agricultural profession. The propaedeutic stage of professional self-determination of schoolchildren is important not only for higher education, but also for secondary vocational education and training (SVET). The SVET objectives are not limited to the training of qualified workers and mid-level specialists. The authors also proved the relevance of the career development trajectory "college-higher education (secondary and tertiary professional training programs)" associated with the problem of teaching content continuity, including "shortened" university curricula. This goal requires modernization of the list of academic curricula of agrarian universities. The competitiveness of higher agrarian education at the stage of technological development “AgroTech 4.0” depends on the implementation of the principles of continuity and succession of professional education through the introduction of flexible module-based inter-disciplinary programs.
