Level Of Training

The authors study the problem of improving the level of training of university and college graduates by using modern approaches, based on the principles of quality management, in the system of professional education. In order to develop creative economy, the government of Russian Federation focuses on scientific and educational centers including regional ones which work on the basis of organizations of professional education. According to many experts, the level of training in regional higher educational institutions and branches of those located in the capital of the country does not comply with innovation requirements. There is a need for building modern material base in the regional higher educational institutions and colleges; there is a need for decent salaries for the staff. Educational institutions should accept the ideology of quality to be followed by all the employees not in words, but in deeds. The learning process used for centuries and based on the transmission of knowledge from a teacher to a student has exhausted itself. The basic principle of quality management is the process approach. The basis for students’ high level of training is organization and implementation of the educational and training process in educational institutions. The main subjects of the process are teachers and students. The efficiency of the educational process will increase if such approaches as consumer-orientedness, leadership and personnel interaction are used. The authors suggest making analysis of interdisciplinary links of the content of academic disciplines set out in the working academic programs. They also point out the advisability of a system of training in the classes of leading teachers. The readers’ attention is attracted to changing the ideology of controlling students’ knowledge and skills from punitive to diagnostic. The article contains recommendations to conduct regular surveys among the students and teachers to discover the areas of educational improvement. The results of the surveys should become the basis for making decisions. Implementation of the principles of quality management does not require large material costs.

Introduction. The important factors affecting health and performance of young people are the conditions of education, in particular, a comfortable microclimate in the classrooms of higher educational institutions. Materials and methods. In view of the urgency of this problem, an analysis was made of the microclimate parameters of educational organizations of different profiles (Ufa city, the Republic of Bashkortostan). 294 classrooms were studied in 22 buildings of 4 leading universities in Ufa. A total of 3,822 measurements were taken to determine the parameters of the microclimate. The analysis of ionizing radiation in the aerial environment of classrooms. There was performed determination of radon and its affiliated products content. In order to assess the conditions and lifestyle of students of 4 higher educational institutions of the city of Ufa, we conducted an anonymous survey of 1,820 students of I and IV years of education. Results. The average temperature in the classrooms of all universities studied was 23.9±0.09 C. The average relative humidity in all classrooms was 34.2 ± 0.42%. Analysis of ionizing radiation (radon and its daughter products decay) in the aerial environment of the classrooms and sports halls located in the basement determined that the average annual equivalent equilibrium volumetric activity of the radon daughter products (EROA ± Δ222Rn) ranged from 28 ± 14 to 69 ± 34.5 meter, which meets the requirements established by SanPiN. Conclusion. The hygienic assessment of the microclimate parameters of educational institutions of various profile revealed a number of deviations from the regulated norms. The results indicate the need to control the parameters of the microclimate, both from the administration of universities, and from the professors. According to the results of the study, recommendations were prepared for the management of higher educational institutions in Ufa.
