The article defines the necessity of involving e-learning of teachers’ assistants in postgraduate pedagogical education to ensure their continuous professional development on the job. The authors have studied the European experience on inclusive teaching and learning and e-resources that can be used in postgraduate pedagogical education of teachers’ assistants. In this article you can find the results of e-learning readiness survey of teachers’ assistants and their choice of postgraduate education forms: intramural, distance learning, blended learning. The authors have analyzed which forms of instructions meet the needs of teachers’ assistants: individual programs of professional development, online consultations, e-coaching, blended learning. The conditions for e-learning implementation in postgraduate education have been defined, they are as follows: the availability of informational and educational environment (multimedia-materials, distance learning on inclusive education, online group for mutual help and messaging, online expert help: teachers and experts available for online consultations, Q&A and managing forums); digital competency of the learners (information search and sharing ideas via the Internet; developing e-resources for inclusive education); motivation of teachers for continuous professional development and their willingness to cooperate online. It is proved that e-learning is an essential precondition for continuous professional development of teachers’ assistants. The model of teachers’ assistants’ e-learning in postgraduate pedagogical education has been presented. We defined examples of didactic tasks during the implementation of e-learning and examples of implementation based on the usage of information and communication technologies (consultations, communication of educational information, sharing experience, monitoring and evaluation). E-learning for teachers’ assistants allows to: determine their personal speed, time and the sequence of learning; create individual learning paths within information and educational environment and develop personal learning networks.

Nowadays the development of a modern information society, the intensity of accumulating the latest professional information and systematic obsolescence of professional knowledge necessitate a constant and continuous learning of a 21st-century specialist. The transition to lifelong learning, when basic education is periodically subjected to additions and adjustments that requires graduates of higher education institutions to master professional knowledge, as well as to form social and professional mobility, is now recognized by the analysts as a solution of this problem. According to researchers, social and professional mobility of health specialists consists in their ability to overcome stereotypes, assimilate new technologies and solve professional problems in accordance with modern socio-cultural and economic conditions. In Ukraine, the development of social and professional mobility of future health specialists is directly related to the implementation of the system of continuous professional development of health professionals. The introduction of the problem-solving techniques during postgraduate study enhances the professional training of doctors, that, in its turn, will allow them to effectively use knowledge gained in daily practice. Interactive methods such as case method, role playing games, management games, brainstorming, disputes, discussions, critical incident techniques, project-based learning, competitive learning, small-group learning with elements of management game or carousel strategy, method of interdisciplinary conference with elements of discussion are considered as an effective tool for problem-based learning within health professional education. Thus, the contribution of postgraduate education to the provision of continuous professional development of health professionals creates optimal conditions for the formation of social and professional mobility of health specialists.
