The purpose of the article is to reveal the importance of preparation of future preschool teachers for implementation of an integrated approach into children's education and to identify key concepts of integration in which the future pre-school teacher should be competent. Integration as a principle of development of pedagogical theory and practice of preschool education is a leading idea that reflects the harmonious integration among educational lines and as a result creation of a single inseparable educational process and guarantees its implementation the achievement of higher results in the development and upbringing of children of preschool age. Integration as a process involves the direct establishment of harmonious links among the defined systems of integration and the creation of a new holistic education system for preschool children in accordance with the defined result. As a process, integration involves the integration of objects (educational lines, different types of children's activities, forms and methods) and designing a way to obtain the expected result. As a result of the educational activities of the preschool institution, integration does not involve the amount of knowledge, skills and abilities, but the acquired integrative qualities of the child, such as curiosity, activity, independence, responsibility, upbringing, etc. Integration as a result is considered by researchers through the form of its organization in the educational process, namely the possible forms of preschoolers’ integrated learning (projects, holidays, travelling, excursions, business and role-playing games), which immerse the preschooler into learning. In the process of integrated studying with the help of different interdisciplinary links, children’ comprehensive and objective vision of the problems of reality and diverse approaches to their solution are formed. A competent preschool teacher should be ready to implement an integrated approach in the process of their practical activities. This will allow to implement the tasks defined by the normative documents in the field of preschool education for teaching children and the formation of their life competencies.

Computer and related technologies, in particular the Internet, are an integral part of our life. In connection with the requirements of the Federal State Educational Standards to educational organizations, high school teachers need to own competencies related to the use of information and computer technologies (ICT) in their professional activity, and in case of music universities — music and computer technologies. ICT not only simplifies and accelerates many forms of the teachers’ work, but also allows to find new ways of working in the educational process. In particular, interaction with students thanks to ICT becomes real-time even in case of distance learning. In this regard, Internet technologies, particularly cloud services — web sites providing various technical capabilities to users without installing any software — are becoming increasingly important for teachers. A significant feature of such tools is their accessibility from any device and from anywhere with Internet access, so the necessary materials are always available to the teacher and, if needed, to other educational process participants. This article considers some cloud services, which can become effective tools in the professional activities of a high school teacher on group disciplines.

The Bologna process has spurred higher education reforms in various European countries. Higher education reforms in Lithuania took place rather incrementally and represented an interaction between two strong powers—the state and the academic oligarchy. In the 1990s, the structural changes at the forefront of the Bologna-related reforms in Lithuania, but higher education reforms have remained stagnant in Lithuania. It is too early to draw conclusions about the success of the reforms, but the involvement of various stakeholders and the vision of broad reforms increase hopes for prospects of a more radical change of the Lithuanian higher education landscape.

The scientific achievements of leading scientists on the selected theme are analyzed and leading ideas, concepts, and main definitions of the research are identified in the article. The creation of proper psycho-didactic conditions in institutions of higher education, which serve as a basis for the formation of professionally significant competences, the development of personal creative potential and active public position in future practical psychologists, is updated. It is argumented that the educational system built on the conceptual foundations of professional training makes it possible to effectively content the educational disciplines, and therefore effective fundamental knowledge, professional-oriented skills, advanced skills, professional norms and values, which have the highest degree of generalization of social phenomena and processes. It is proved that the concept of the study of practical psychology combines professional methodological, philosophical and general scientific principles and scientific-methodological approaches, which are directed at the revealing future professional activity. The outlined conceptual foundations of professional training allow us to modify the educational process in higher education according to the individual needs of future practical psychologists. The methodological analysis of educational phenomenon of practical psychology in institutions of higher education on four basic levels is offered: philosophical-theoretical (evolutionary-theoretical formation of the specialist and his or her effective functioning), methodological (formation of the system of world-view and semantic individual formations for realization of individual’s educational skills and abilities), specific-scientific (acquisition of fundamental knowledge about professional activities) and technological (effective use of methods and techniques of research for acquisition of true empirical knowledge). The conclusion about the importance of outlining of conceptual foundations in the system of professional training of future practical psychologists is made.
