DEVELOPMENT OF DUAL EDUCATION IN GERMANY: EXPERIENCE AND PROSPECTS FOR ADAPTATION IN UKRAINE

The study and implementation of foreign experience in the development of dual education with proven socio-economic effect is critically important for Ukraine, as it can accelerate the solution of modern problems in the labor market and in the education system. The study offers the results of a theoretical analysis of the development of dual education in Germany. The publication presents: a description of the historical foundations and features of the functioning of vocational and higher dual education in Germany, common national characteristics of building the educational process in the conditions of the dual form of education, the impact of the German experience of dual education on the educational systems of other countries of the world. The results were obtained by combining a number of methods of the theoretical level of scientific research (historical, comparison, generalization) and empirical (observation). It is shown that the German model provides a direct link between theory and practice (this allows you to quickly adapt educational programs to the needs of employers), determines a decrease in youth unemployment (graduates receive not only diplomas, but also real work experience and a high chance of employment), contributes to increasing the country's economic competitiveness (provides a stable flow of qualified personnel to the German labor market). The key advantages of organizing dual education in Germany include: a high level of compliance of learning outcomes with the needs of the labor market (curriculum programs are developed jointly with companies and therefore graduates have relevant knowledge and skills); early professional orientation (students are involved in real work processes and this allows them to better understand the chosen profession); high level of employment of graduates immediately after completing their studies. It was found that the German experience is actively studied in the world and adapted in Ukraine. The tasks of developing domestic dual education were determined (improving the legislative support for the development of full-fledged dual education in Ukraine; strengthening the government's support for projects for the development of dual education and motivating enterprises to participate in training personnel in the dual form of education; creating a platform for maintaining a continuous dialogue between all stakeholders in the development of dual education).
