MODELING THE MECHANISMS FOR RECONCILING THE INTERESTS OF THE PARTIES IN THE PROCESS OF PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION TEACHERS’ ADVANCED TRAINING

The analysis of the dynamics of the number of teachers of vocational education was conducted. It is established that they form a potential market for the provision of qualifications. Three approaches to the content of advanced training are considered. The first approach assumes that the content of professional development is formed by its own organizers. By the second - the content is ordered by those who are planning to improve qualifications. The third - the content is formed by the simultaneous efforts of those who enhances qualifications and those processes. Of the three approaches, the first one is traditional, but it does not take into account the specifics of the professional direction of educational institutions working with those who enhances qualifications. The second one is, on the contrary, takes into account their interests. In our opinion, the greatest efficiency of professional development can be achieved for a third approach, but it provides for the need to ensure the parity of the parties in this cooperation. In addition, taking into account the presence of competition among advanced training providers, an important aspect becomes not only the possibility of reaching an agreement, but also the quality of the service provided. In order to justify the expediency of using the third approach, the game theory was used. It is shown that the success of reforms in the system of vocational education can be provided by more active involvement in the process of retraining and improving the qualifications of teachers of higher education institutions. In our opinion, it is expedient to focus on organizing the training of teachers of subjects of the professional-technical cycle, senior masters and masters of production training, since the relevant system of retraining and advanced training of teachers of secondary disciplines is more branched. Conclusions. An analysis of the dynamics of the number of teachers in the system of professional (vocational-technical) education showed the presence of periodicity regarding their number, which practically fully corresponds to the situation regarding the number of those who they teach. The main approaches to improving skills are considered. With the help of the game theory it is proved that the greatest efficiency is possible to achieve if the approach is used when the content of advanced training is formed by the simultaneous efforts of those who enhances qualifications and those processes. It is shown that in such an approach, there is a possibility of taking into account not only formal features on the availability of advanced training, but also the possibility of assessing qualitative parameters of the service provided. This is an additional competitive advantage for providing these services on a competitive advanced training services.
