Introduction. The policy of the European Union and many other countries in the field of education and training of personnel with applied qualifications is traditionally focused on the needs of the economy of territories and the competitiveness of enterprises. Currently, a new organisational and managerial model is being approved in the Russian Federation, related to the world practice of innovative management. Some specific management tools of the targeted focus of VET systems on the needs of the economy have repeatedly been the subject of study. However, it has not been decided yet what specific sets of management tools should be used and how to effectively achieve the dynamic balance of personnel supply and demand in regional labour markets.Aim. The present research aimed to establish the features of the targeted managerial focusing of the activities of the regional VET systems on the needs of the socio-economic development of the constituent entity of the Russian Federation.Methodology and research methods. The research methodology is based on the following principles and approaches: system- and activity-based analysis of social objects, comparative analysis and modelling of social systems. The authors applied the metrological principle to compare the obtained values of indicators/indicators of the activity of VET systems with the “standard”, which is used as threshold values set by the method of expert assessments or by average values of indicators in current Russian monitoring studies. Aggregated indices were calculated as sums of normalised values of corresponding indicators groups.The following research methods were applied: questioning, expert assessment method, scaling, web analysis, content analysis of documents, methods of mathematical statistics in the processing of sociological data, methods of analysis, synthesis, generalisation, comparison, and abstraction in the interpretation of research results.The data sources were open-source databases (websites of the government of constituent entities of the Russian Federation, educational authorities, and professional educational organisations); statistical information; expert assessments of regional specialists and specialists of executive authorities in the field of education.Results and scientific novelty. As a result of the study, it was found that the management focus tools of the pilot regional VET system do not fully correspond to the needs of regionally oriented development. Regional differentiation is significant in accordance with most of the parameters, which characterise management tools for orienting the activities of the VET systems to the demands of the external environment. The spread in the values of indicators for the pilot regions reaches 80 %. According to several indicators, the identified differences are due to the different economic conditions of the regions. However, most of the parameters, which characterise the adaptability of regional VET systems, are not related to the economic component of the development of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, and, are determined mainly by the factors of educational resources management and management models used by educational systems and individual professional educational organisations.Practical significance. The results obtained in the study make it possible to highlight the problem areas in the management of the VET system in the region and to identify reserves for enhancing the compliance of the conditions and results of the VET system and educational organisations with the needs of the socio-economic development of regions.

Introduction. The level of orientation of regional secondary vocational education systems to the needs of the territories in which they are located significantly affects the economic parameters of the development of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, the dynamic characteristics of personnel demand and supply in the regional labor market. The technology and tools developed by the authors for studying the degree of compliance of vocational education and training systems with the tasks of economic and social development has been implemented in three subjects of the Russian Federation featuring different levels of socio-economic development: the Samara region, the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous District and the Republic of Ingushetia. Methodology and methods. A methodological approach was used that considers the current situation of uncertainty in the external environment of regional secondary vocational education systems. Hence, the arrangement of its educational resources, which provides the properties of a self-organizing system, becomes an effective tool for stimulating the regionally oriented development of the vocational education and training system. Achieving the compliance of the VET-system with external requests is determined by the parameters of its adaptive potential. Research methods: survey (questioning), expert evaluation method, content analysis, scaling. Results. To achieve the goal of the research, the compliance criteria were formed, as well as indicators that reflect the properties of the organization of educational resources of the system, corresponding to the principles of adaptive systems. It is established that the achieved compliance values in each region are formed by various sets of factors and conditions for the organization of educational resources. The following trends are identified for the regions: a) a decrease in employers' effective demand for vocational education programs; b) insufficient use of educational technologies and forms of training organization that optimize the resource support of the activities of professional educational organizations, including network formats for the implementation of educational programs using educational resources of enterprises in the real sector of the economy. On average, 20% of professional educational organizations in pilot regions practice a network format for implementing open source programs (as a rule, without using employers' resources). At the same time, only 6% of the student contingent are trained in such programs. Discussion and conclusion. The practical significance of the study is determined by the possibilities of applying the results of assessing the level of compliance of the VET-systems with the tasks of socio-economic development to work out and implement effective regional educational policy in the sphere of vocational education.

The author touched upon topical issues of inter-budget alignment, budget provision of regions with financial resources, focusing on factors that directly affect the stability of the budget system, as well as highlighting problems in the budget sphere that require urgent attention from the authorities. It is concluded that the level of interregional differentiation continues to increase, and the modern mechanism of budget equalization requires urgent amendments and adjustments. It is emphasized that the main goals of socio-economic development of the Russian Federation related to the transition to an innovative type of development, changes in the structure of the national economy, set out in strategic documents and messages of the President of the Russian Federation and declared since 2009, are not being implemented, and the effectiveness of state economic policy and Federal budget expenditures for its implementation remains low. This indicates the need to review the current system.

In the article, the authors analyze the functioning of special economic zones in the Russian Federation. Currently, based on the established world practice, special economic zones can act as a catalyst for attracting foreign investment and ensuring effective regional socio-economic development. Therefore, according to the authors, the issues of improving the functioning of the SEZ are of particular importance. The analysis of the results of the functioning of special economic zones in the Russian Federation shows that there is a significant potential for their development. Due to the fact that the functioning of special economic zones is inextricably linked with the conduct of foreign economic activity, and the SEZs themselves are a tool for integrating the country into global value chains, the issues of customs regulation of activities on their territory become important, which acts as an effective way for the state to influence foreign economic activity and have significant opportunities in stimulating the development of special economic zones in the Russia. In this regard, the study of the application of customs regulation measures as important factors in the development of special economic zones in the Russian Federation is very relevant. Special attention was paid to the study of the regulatory framework for the application of customs procedures in respect of goods imported into the territory of special economic zones and exported from such territories. According to the results of the study, it was found that there are significant gaps in the current legislative regulation of this range of legal relations. The article formulates specific measures that can contribute to improving the efficiency of the functioning of special economic zones in the Russian Federation.
