Abstract. In the current conditions of explosive development of information technologies in education, rapid obsolescence of knowledge, "death" of entire segments of professions and in¬creasing local and global competition for talent, the problem of developing and implementing a modern, competitive individual educational trajectory (IET) of students comes to the fore. Among the tools and organizational approaches designed to solve this problem, the task of forming, developing and improving the institute of tutors is highlighted. In the deep and extensive academic discussion that has developed in recent years around tutoring, the topic of tutor support at the university stands out. However, at the moment, this part of the discussion does not put an end to one of the most important issues for the organization of work of this category of aca¬demic staff – that there is a model of competence of a tutor at the university. The relevance of this issue is also confirmed by the absence of a separate professional standard of tutoring, which is certainly necessary in higher education organizations. Today, the standard "specialist in the field of education" includes only a generalized function – "tutor support of students". The article analyzes various approaches and views on the model of tutors' competencies in higher education. A working model of the competencies of this professional group is presented on the example of a modern Russian university that has successfully implemented the concept of an individual educational trajectory in its activities. There are described practical approaches and solutions for using the above model in the processes of attracting, evaluating, training and developing tutors at the university. The prospects for further development and scaling of the tutor competence model in other universities of the Russian Federation are considered. As a result of the research, new models and algorithms for the formation of tutor competencies are proposed, which can be used for scaling and implementation in higher education. This research and its results may be of interest to the management of higher education institutions, representatives of services and departments responsible for the development of new educational technologies and improving the quality of human capital of higher education institutions.

The quality and content are constantly increasing their relevance in the conditions of modern education. If quality can be understood as means and educational materials which are used in the process, the content is a sign of the diversity of these materials and a factor which takes into account the age, abilities and chances of learners. Taking into account these two important factors, the theoretical and practical bases of combining modern information technologies in improving the quality and content of the system of blended learning at philological higher education institutions of specialized in teaching English are described in detail. In addition, the paths and stages of creating a specific system that runs continuously, combining the effective and reasonable functions of social networking services (SNS) and messengers in consolidating the quality and content indicators of blended learning, are gradually illustrated. Besides that, by combining online educational materials with traditional place-based classroom methods at philological higher education institutions which are specialized in teaching English based on the approach of blended learning, the system of fostering students’ linguistic skills, such as reading, writing, listening, and speaking can be optimized and modernized according to the results of this research in the article.

Purpose This study aims to examine the extant literature to analyze the relationship between quality assurance (QA) and innovation in the higher education context. Design/methodology/approach This study selected 63 articles through a systematic literature review in Scopus and Web of Science databases and performed a descriptive and thematic synthesis-analysis on the sample. Findings The research identifies several perspectives discussed on QA systems covering experiences, criticisms and practice implications. The literature review shows there is no clear consensus on whether innovation in higher education institutions (HEIs) is fostered or hindered by QA processes. However, it seems that the likelihood of innovativeness and positive QA outcomes are directly linked to how these processes are managed in universities. Research limitations/implications This review highlights the university management concerns that emerge with QA issues as it is not yet clear to what extent innovation is actually promoted in scenarios where QA is applied. Hence, this literature review could be considered comprehensive but not exhaustive. Further studies are recommended to improve the understanding of how HEIs can both innovate and ensure quality at the same time. Originality/value The paper contributes to the existing body of knowledge by advancing the opportunities and challenges that HEIs face due to QA system features.
