Moreover, it identifies a system of control actions, describes author-developed approaches to creating models, methods, and technologies for managing classroom funds. We have proposed several basic principles for adapting and implementing classroom fund management systems in educational institutions on the basis of the generalized experience of developing, implementing, and using classroom fund management technologies at various levels and with different models of education.Using the example of the Siberian State University of Geosystems and Technologies, we describe the experience of implementing a system that comprehensively solves the problems related to classroom fund management. They are as follows: keeping count, profiling, planning, occupancy forecasting, distribution, monitoring, and assessing the efficiency of using.The technologies and models of classroom fund management described in the article can be adapted and used to improve classroom fund management systems in organizations of various levels and models of education.
