Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of problems and prospects of introducing dual education into the educational process. The dual form of education involves a close relationship and combination of theoretical and practical components through training directly at the workplace. The development of dual education can contribute to the growth of innovations and increase the competitiveness of Ukrainian companies on the world market, and can also guarantee the applicant a place of further employment. The subject of the study is the effective use of the university’s potential for the introduction of a dual form of education. The purpose of the article is to study the theoretical foundations of the implementation of a dual form of education with the subsequent selection of the optimal model of its functioning in Ukraine. The methodological basis of the study is the regulatory legal acts of Ukraine, which regulate the activities of higher education institutions, scientific works of domestic scientists, and foreign specialists on the issue of the implementation of a dual form of education. The study revealed the content of the dual form of education and formed prospects for its implementation; analyzed models of the dual form of education in certain European universities, particularly in Poland, Spain, and Germany; the peculiarities of the implementation of dual education in educational institutions of Ukraine were investigated. The study of the experience of the leading EU universities regarding the introduction of a dual form of education and various forms of its implementation in the educational process provided an opportunity to thoroughly study all the advantages and risks for further implementation in domestic higher education institutions, taking into account the national characteristics of the educational process. The practical significance of the work lies in the proposed model of introducing a dual form of education at the Odessa National Economic University, which will improve the quality of graduate training, as well as strengthen the relationship between the university, the student, and the employer.
