Professional and Public Accreditation As a Tool for Interaction Between Higher Education and Employers

The field of education today cannot develop as a closed system, without taking into account the request formulated by employers. The contradiction between the requirements of employers and the results provided by educational organizations is one of the reasons for the decline in the quality of training. It is obvious that the dialogue between the sphere of education and the sphere of work should be based on clear mutual obligations. In many countries, the National Qualifications System (hereinafter referred to as the NSC) is used as a tool that allows building such a dialogue. In our country, according to the 238-FZ “On the independent Assessment of Qualifications”, this is an independent assessment of qualifications, just its introduction into the employment relationship “employer – applicant” and leads to those serious changes in the field of education as a supplier of qualified personnel for the labor market. In this regard, the article attempts to assess the methodological impact of the process of implementing an independent assessment of qualifications on the field of higher education through the created interaction tools, which include professional standards and the procedure of professional and public accreditation, as a system for verifying the fulfillment of their requirements. After all, it is necessary to be able to correctly assess the degree of achievement of the requirements of professional standards when students master the relevant educational programs of the university, and to focus on achieving this goal the process of designing the educational trajectory of future graduates. Because it is from the competent fulfillment of this condition that in the end the demand for trained personnel in the labor market, and, therefore, the educational program itself, which is already beneficial to the educational organization, will hang.
