Using the SPSS 22.0 software package, statistical processing of the results of the questionnaire survey of teachers was carried out. By means of questionnaires, an assessment of the need (urgency) and the possibility of implementing measures aimed at increasing the teaching potential was carried out. A pedagogical experiment was carried out, which involved the passage of training for teachers in order to increase the pedagogical potential: the development of the theoretical base and practical skills in the application of teaching methods, such as Teaching simulation, Teaching case studies, Learning project, Teaching by situation, Lecture, Problem solving, Teaching in groups, Practical methods, experiments, Training method, review. The experiment involved 61 teachers from Van Lang University.

Summary
The effective functioning of the socio-economic system and the achievement of a high level of well-being of the population, as shown by the advanced experience of developed countries, is primarily ensured by improving the quality of the higher education system (Salmi, 2018). High-quality higher education that contributes to the development of the cultural and spiritual superstructure of society forms the intellectual basis of human capital as the main productive force of innovative development (Salmi, 2018). In this regard, the quality of higher education in modern conditions should be harmonized with the current needs in the field of economics, technology, science, culture, have an applied character and adapt to the volatility of the socio-economic system in the context of globalization. It is considered that quality assurance system is never built from scratch, the normal implementation process is a linear one (Shah and Nair, 2016): new tools and procedures are developed and some conditions are needed in order to support organization to adapt to these new tools and procedures
