AbstractMany professional labor markets are currently experiencing signs of deprofessionalization, including automation of tasks and increasingly unstable employment conditions. Drawing on the case of journalism schools, this article examines how these shifts affect professional education, which has historically been positioned as a means to avoiding precarious employment. How do professional schools cope with inimical disruptions to the labor markets for which they are training students? Based on 113 in-depth interviews with faculty, staff, and administrators from 44 U.S. journalism programs, we argue that journalism schools have sought to reframe labor market instability as an inevitable and even desirable aspect of journalistic practice and professional identity. They do this by dismantling boundaries, valorizing entrepreneurialism, and seeking to alter institutional practices to emphasize skills over abstract knowledge. Taken together, we call this professionalizing contingency. As labor market precarity continues to spread within expert and professional fields, our findings have implications for broader sociological understandings of professional education.

Stable reproduction of resources in the labor market, as well as their  adaptation to current trends, largely depend on the awareness  of potential employees of their capabilities and prospects. Such views are formed already at the initial stages of mastering the  profession - in obtaining higher education. These representations are  an important indicator especially in the context of the  transformation of the higher education system, in particular in  connection with the updated GEF HE. In this article, the authors  consider approaches to studying the youth labor market and focus  their attention on issues of professional self-determination and  gaining experience in labor activity. Based on the focus group study,  the authors disclose the expectations and self-assessments of  students regarding their professional prospects in the labor market. Researchers identify specific features of selfassessment of  professional perspectives depending on the course of study, on the  level of professional education and other factors. As it turned out,  undergrads tend to assess the degree of their readiness to enter the  labor market rather high, but nevertheless feel undefined. According  to the students, frequent short-term internships in specific  enterprises could increase their confidence and expand the prospects  for successful employment. At the same time, students  are more focused on working in specific organizations than actually  on professional self-actualization.

Socio-economic development plays a huge role in improving the quality of education. The challenges that modern society presents to labor personnel contribute to the systematic and mobile development of the system of additional professional education. Modernization of the Russian education system is aimed at improving the quality of the pedagogical process. In this regard, at each level of education, the main criterion is the educational result and the assessment of its quality. Objective: to predict the main trends in the development of regional vocational education based on a study of its current state in conjunction with the development of the modern labor market and the national qualifications system and the design of an optimal model for a regional system of continuing professional education. The Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), being part of the Far Eastern Federal District, has its own specific features, including extreme climatic and geographical conditions, remoteness of settlements from the centers, poorly developed transport system and significant population rarefaction, causing socio-economic characteristics and etc. Each natural-climatic zone with its own conditions requires special approaches and technologies in human life and methods of farming. At the same time, the economy of the most northern region of Russia can be characterized as dynamically developing. Today, the republic's leadership has determined the main direction of development of the northern region of Russia: Yakutia needs its own non-primary sector economy, creative industry. In this regard, at the present stage, the formation of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) is facing the task of transforming the education system, introducing a new standard for all levels of education, involving from early age to scientific knowledge, the formation of high intelligence, the ability to think freely, outside subject areas, modern competence, focus on "smart economy". Analysis of the scientific literature suggests that one of the main methodological issues of the research is the problem of the readiness of the individual for professional activity, to integrate into the modern labor market. At the same time, the analysis of scientific and pedagogical literature has shown that the issues of forming effective mechanisms and regulations for the development of a regional system of additional professional education in the context of the introduction of the national qualifications system of Russia in the conditions of the region need theoretical understanding and justification. When studying the site materials, we paid attention to the presence in the topics of dissertation research of terms related to additional professional education, continuing professional education, adult education, the development of a regional system of additional vocational education and related organizational mechanisms and regulations, the development of additional professional education in the context of the introduction of a national qualifications system and its elements, modeling or application m cluster principle in the development of additional vocational education. The results of the analysis suggest that the formation of effective mechanisms and regulations for the development of a regional system of additional professional education in the context of the implementation of the National Qualifications System of the Russian Federation is relevant, relevant and requires targeted research. In those years, 80 doctoral and 1,404 doctoral dissertations were announced, of which 32 doctoral and 120 doctoral dissertations deal with various aspects of additional professional (in the overwhelming majority, advanced training) and continuing professional education, adult education. A number of dissertation research, both Ph.D. and doctoral, conducted from 2013–2018, is devoted to studying the interaction of education and the labor market. The regional system of continuing education as a resource for the professional development of the personality was studied in the doctoral dissertation of Ya.A. Ilinskaya; dissertations are defended, highlighting various aspects of teacher development, the formation of their readiness for certain activities: inclusive education of children (I.V. Vozniak), formation and implementation of a personalized electronic educational environment in the conditions of additional professional education (V.B. Klepikov), development support of the spiritual and moral world of orphans (N.F. Yakovlev), development management of intellectually gifted students in the system of continuing professional education (R.R. Bikbulat ov) and others; socio-pedagogical conditions of continuous vocational education support (I.O. Ibragimov, M.S. Zadvorna, E.L. Makarova, A.V. Krasnoslobodtsev, O.S. Korkina, etc.); issues of development of professional success of teachers, professional competencies and professional improvement (M.S. Britkevich, N.V. Ganzha, L.V. Chernikova), organizational and pedagogical conditions for the development of modern additional professional education (V.S. Dmitrieva), modernization of the system certification of students of professional educational organizations in the conditions of the formation of the Russian national qualifications system (S.A. Efimova). Thus, there is reason to believe that the issues of forecasting and designing, as well as the formation of effective mechanisms and regulations for the development of a regional system of additional professional education in the context of the implementation of the national qualifications system of Russia in the region require a focused study.
