Abstract

The article deals with the problem of adult education caused by changes in various forms of vocational training in modern conditions. Currently, the Decade of Childhood program sets the task of comprehensive personnel development, which focuses on periodic professional development of specialists as an integral part of continuing education. Regular completion of joint training courses for specialists closely related to the protection of childhood is the key to growth, both the level of professionalism and their personal development. Specialists in the field of children’s rights protection have different education, work experience and age, therefore, the development of advanced training programs should be based on modern approaches to adult education, taking into account the principles of lifelong learning (“lifelong learning”) as a psychological and pedagogical basis for building a comprehensive system of education of specialists in new conditions. The approaches to adult education based on based on the ideas of the founder of Russian andragogy S.G. Vershlovsky and the successors of his ideas. The main focus is on the description of the results of the development and testing of a modular program of joint training of specialists of the OIP and the apparatus of the regional UPR “Ensuring and protecting the rights and legitimate interests of children, their social and other state guarantees”. An analysis of the educational needs of each group of trainees of advanced training courses showed that they have similar professional interests. At the same time, there are certain difficulties in choosing the topics of classes for a joint professional development program. As part of the monitoring, among the problems of organizing additional professional education for specialists of guardianship and guardianship authorities of the executive bodies of the Russian Federation, it was revealed that one of the problems is the lack of regulated deadlines for terms of completion of training by municipal employees and appropriate funding.
