The study elaborates a model and consider the experience of implementing the rationalism principle based on dual training and joint design and creative activity, represents the main components of the model practical use. The research results allow identifying the prospects for further research, which consist in the development of new directions, forms, means and methods of implementing the rationalization principle in training workers.
