No type of legal proceedings is complete without the involvement of experts for the production of expert research or specialists for consultation. In this regard, the question of determining the competence of these subjects by persons conducting the process who do not have special knowledge in the field in which the knowledgeable person specializes is very acute. The author determines the competence of the forensic expert and enumerates other requirements to the expert as a participant in the proceedings. The formation of competence is primarily influenced by the level of training, education of an expert or specialist. The main attention focuses on the disclosure of the main ways of initial training and retraining of forensic experts at the present stage: the traditional way of experts training; specialization in the specialty “Forensic examination”; master’s degree in programs of expert specialties. The existing types of training and retraining of forensic experts in Russia and some foreign countries, including the member States of the Eurasian economic Union (EEU), are analyzed. The traditional way of training of forensic experts and training under the program of specialization are revealed proceeding from historical conditionality and necessity of training of specialists for implementation of forensic activity. The positive and negative features of the training areas are highlighted, taking into account their impact on the formation of the competence of the forensic expert. The author emphasizes the need to develop existing forms of initial training of forensic experts, taking into account the advantages and disadvantages of each of them. The study concludes that it is necessary to apply the subjective criterion in order to determine the effective form of training of forensic experts

According to his/her legal status an expert is engaged in this activity on a permanent basis using the powers given by the Law of Ukraine «On forensic examination» and procedural laws. The article pays particular attention to the forms of obligations undertaken by an expert in the course of a pretrial investigation and trial - warning of criminal liability, the oath by an expert.

The suggested hypothesis of M.Ya. Sehai allows extrapolating the results of applying whole methods within the framework of each class (forensic expert substratology, forensic expert documentation, and forensic psychonomics). This does not diminish the significance of the scientific ground of the provisions of a particular type of forensic examination, but thanks to the challenging hypothesis of M. Ya. Sehai concerning the relationship of interaction and the provisions justified by him in forensic science, this will allow applying “forensic” methods (which, by and large, does not exist, since methods are general scientific) to the subject of research in other types of forensic examinations, where they have not previously been used. The subject of the study of forensic science and forensic expertology enlarges each other, at least from the perspective of using special knowledge in legal proceedings. Conclusion is the following: in forensic expertology has its own role in justice, it is a completely established theory with a hypothesis and accepted facts at present. Forensic expertology has its own subject; it integrates the scientific methods of individual forensic expert theories and has its own methodological function. Key words: forensic expertology, criminalistics, forensic science, forensic expert substratology, forensic expert documentation, forensic psychonomics, hypothesis.

The article notes that one of the most important forms of using special knowledge in the judicial process is the involvement of an expert and the conduct of forensic examination. It is emphasized that the scientists have proved that from the point of view of forensic expert science as a science, forensic-expert activity acts as its object of cognition. However, beyond their attention was the characteristic of the place of an expert in the system of subjects of forensic expert activity. It is stated that forensic-expert activity can be considered as formed and relatively autonomous type of socially useful activity, which closely interacts with law-enforcement activity in general and criminal-procedural in particular in order to meet the needs of legal proceedings. It was emphasized that the development of the SED contributed to the change and further improvement of legal and procedural relations in order to improve their legal status. In this case, entities, with the exception of general ones, have their own specific tasks and, within the limits of their decision, act independently, interacting only when solving general tasks of expert activity. The article emphasizes that forensic and criminal-procedural activities are closely interconnected, sometimes intertwined and repeated, taking into account the peculiarities of the professional activity of the expert. This is due to the fact that in some cases, for example: conducting expert research, he acts as a subject of expert activity, and in case of his involvement in the criminal process, for example: appointment and conducting of examination — becomes a party to criminal proceedings. As a result of the analysis of different approaches to evaluating the properties of professional activity of the expert as a subject of expert activity, it was determined that they can be divided into general (social character, purposefulness, planning, systematic implementation) and special (legal nature, relative independence of the expert, research character, verifiability (checking) of the expert’s activity, initiative, constructiveness, correlation of individuality and collegiality, special socio-psychological atmosphere). It is also emphasized that the qualities of an expert, without which it is impossible to carry out his professional activity, include the knowledge, skills and skills acquired during his studies and professional activities. In this case, a person may perform the functions of an expert in a criminal proceeding in the presence of special and procedural conditions.

A forensic expert, as a participant in legal proceedings, carries out important activities to assist in proving the persons conducting the proceedings, as well as to persons who have a legal interest in the outcome of the case. In order to carry out his functions, he is entrusted with a number of duties, the proper fulfillment of which, in the opinion of the legislator, contributes to the high-quality, complete and objective conduct of an expert study and giving an opinion. The expert’s responsibility is established by various codified normative legal acts of the member countries of the Eurasian Economic Union. Several types of liability are envisaged depending on the severity of the consequences of failure or improper performance by an expert of his duties: criminal, administrative, procedural. Nevertheless, the normative consolidation of the expert’s responsibility today does not allow us to speak about the logic and the validity of the established types of responsibility. Analyzing the specified types of expert’s liability, it can be concluded that in some cases the use of certain negative consequences in relation to the expert is disproportionate, there is a lack of a unified approach in different types of legal proceedings to determining the type of expert’s liability.

The choice of working methods in the training with non-swimmers is very demanding task. The conclusion is that multiple problem of training with non-swimmers requires the use of different methods and methodological procedures. The person responsible for method selection is definitely swimming instructor. Proper methods selection in a specific situation will depend on many factors such as the place of training, characteristics of non-swimmers, characteristics of teaching groups, previous studies and so on.

In light of empirical experience from Morocco, combined with new possibilities afforded by Information and Communication Technology (ICT), there is a wish to integrate new technologies into distance education to help solve a set of problems identified in the initial training at the Regional Centre for the Professions of Education and Training of Fez-Meknes. The results of a study conducted among 15 trainee teachers of the Earth and Life Sciences allow us to conclude that designing a hypermedia tool for learning could constitute a promising solution to address the many challenges linked to the initial training of teachers in Morocco. Finally, the use of this digital resource by trainee teachers’ has also strongly contributed to their eagerness to integrate ICT in their subsequent teaching practices.
