Abstract
The article explores the efficiency of funding professional education institutions in Ukraine. Indicators such as economy, productivity, and effectiveness can be applied to measure the socio-economic efficiency of educational activities. Funding for training qualified workers in Ukraine is done through state or local budget funds. Additionally, professional education institutions can independently receive additional funding from funds received for training qualified workers beyond the state order under contracts concluded with legal and natural persons. The statistical data presented allowed for the following conclusions: budget expenditures on professional education increase annually while the number of students decreases. The main problems of professional education functioning are the poor material-technical base of professional education institutions, the low efficiency of managing these institutions, and the content and quality of professional education not meeting the requirements of the modern labour market. However, the critical advantage of professional education is its flexibility and quick response to labour market demands. Education can take place both on a full-time and part-time basis. Improving the quality of graduates from professional education institutions is possible through the establishment of a system of professional qualifications and the creation of a unified educational environment for professional education, the implementation of mechanisms to incentivize employers to participate in the educational process, creating conditions for the development of dual forms of education; popularizing professional education among the population, planning professional development and careers. Dual education was introduced in Germany in the last century in a ratio of "30% theory, 70% practice." The economy provides 73% of dual education funding in Germany. During the 2- to 3-year training period, employers get to know their students well and can better assess their suitability for the enterprise. The school education program in Ukraine needs reform to increase the share of career guidance work and opportunities for students in graduating classes to intern at companies. School education should develop practical skills to help students adapt to employer demands and determine their future profession.
