The author has studied the peculiarities of academic motivation of final-year cadets (n=323) of higher education institutions with specific educational conditions. It has been determined that the dominant motivation for their professional training is internal motivation. They make independent decisions about their professional activities and seek to continue their service within the National Police. Adequate and situational types of professional motivation are typical for cadets. Respondents are aiming for theoretical knowledge. The motives for the professional activities of final-year cadets do not affect their motivation to acquire theoretical knowledge, but they affect the acquisition of professional skills and abilities. The “romantic halo” of the profession remains in the perception of the profession by final-year cadets, but the material component also becomes important. The status of the profession in society and its material remuneration, as well as the curiosity of the chosen profession have significant influence on the motivation of future professional activities of fourth-year cadets. The motivating factor for internally motivated cadets is a sense of effectiveness, as well as status and state’s high salary for labor of law enforcement professionals. Externally positively motivated cadets in case of the decrease in the status of the profession, unrealized career ambitions or the reduction of the material rewards of law enforcement officers may begin to perform their duties formally or may leave the service. Externally negatively motivated cadets are not interested in performing professional duties. On the basis of the obtained data, the author has concluded on the importance of mentoring in the process of professional development of young specialists and the continuation of professional training in the system of postgraduate education and service training of police officers. The author has emphasized the importance of further motivation of final-year cadets within professional activity, in particular the introduction of a “motivational” package for police officers by the state.

The article deals with defining directions for improving the training of specialists for pre-trial investigation bodies of the National Police. Every year, more demanding demands are placed on law enforcement activities of state bodies, in particular the National Police, which in turn requires an increase in the amount of knowledge required by police officers. Increasing the intellectual level of criminals, using offenders more sophisticated methods and means of committing offenses, careful training, masking criminal acts require adequate response of law enforcement agencies, which in turn requires appropriate training of Interior Ministry employees. An analysis of the publications which initiated the solution of this problem showed that today there is a lack of thorough research on the directions of improving the training of specialists for the bodies of pre-trial investigation of the National Police, which determines the relevance of the investigated problems. At present, within the structure of higher education institutions of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine, the specialization of training police officers is focused only on the process of training police officers of criminal police (Dnipropetrovsk State University of Internal Affairs - financial and economic security; Odessa State University of Internal Affairs - units of counteraction etc.). In turn, the process of training specialists for pre-trial investigation bodies does not have such an extensive system of training areas. As a result of the conducted research, it is concluded that there is an urgent need to improve the training of specialists for pre-trial investigation bodies of the National Police. The main directions for improving the training of specialists for the pre-trial investigation bodies of the National Police should be: 1) increasing the requirements for the quality of legal education and professional training of future employees of investigative units; 2) introduction of training of experts for pre-trial investigation bodies according to the profiles assigned by the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine; 3) introduction of an effective model of conducting binary classes with the involvement of experienced staff of pre-trial investigation bodies in the process of training specialists for such bodies.
