Presented is an algorithm for attracting consumers of educational services to higher education institutions based on benchmarking technologies, tracking the needs and trends in modern education in a specific market in a given period of time. The scientific novelty lies in development and formulation of the concept of “real and virtual criteria for choosing educational services”, that form preferences and needs of potential applicants, which should be based on the study and generalization of experience of career guidance available at the university. The study was conducted on the basis of Rostov state university of economics in the format of career guidance work in the process of questioning applicants and their parents, monitoring available information of the admissions committee. The relevance is confirmed by existing non-standard socio-economic, communication and technical conditions for obtaining educational services, as well as the specifics of activities of a particular university and a sharp reduction in potential applicants in certain areas of educational standard. The results reflected criteria of attractiveness of the university for applicants, as well as their view on motives, incentives and evaluation of the university, educational services, prospects for gaining experience and skills in the specialty. Generalized results of the study were discussed in August 2020 and used by the author in development of a career guidance project to attract consumers of educational services of the university in 2021.

The article systematizes the conceptual principles of formation and implementation of strategies of seven research universities of Ukraine, presented in the international QS ranking (Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv; V. N. Karazin Kharkiv National University; Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute; National Technical University "Kharkiv Polytechnic Institute"; Lviv Polytechnic National University; Sumy State University; Vasyl' Stus Donetsk National University). This sample is based on the fact that these research universities in Ukraine have sufficient potential for international competitiveness, which is emphasized by their recognition as a world-class rating system, which is formed from a number of key indicators measuring scientific and educational activities of these subjects. The study substantiates the differences between strategies and programs for the development of research universities in Ukraine and compares the results of their implementation. The necessity of using the method of global ranking as a tool of strategic development management of research universities of Ukraine is actualized. Prerequisites for the formation and systematic support of the implementation of the innovative potential of the strategies of research universities of Ukraine in order to strengthen the academic reputation and image at the global level are revealed. It is established that one of the seven research universities of Ukraine studied has a development strategy until 2020, which necessitates the urgent need to diagnose the results of this strategy and launch the process of updating strategic goals, in accordance with modern conditions of science and technology, to adopt a new program of development. This approach will ensure the continuity and systemic nature of the process of strategic management of research universities in Ukraine and lay the foundation for the development and adoption of the state doctrine of development of research universities in Ukraine in order to ensure their global recognition.

Selection Of

Today, the market for educational services is quite congested and requires more detailed external and internal analysis of the activities of universities in order to understand the principles of attracting students. The majority of prospective enrollees to universities have certain selection criteria and the quality of education is one of the main ones. That is why such a competitive factor as a level of preparation of professors requires more detailed consideration from the point of view of personnel management. The level of preparation of the scientific and pedagogical staff includes not only the selection of certain qualifications, but also the motivation and interest in conducting quality classes. Due to the nature of the work, teachers are most susceptible to emotional burnout, so management should always keep in mind ideas aimed at preventing burnout in the collective. The aim of the work is to consider personnel management as a tool for building a competitive position of higher education institutions, to solve the problem of teachers’ burnouts and to provide recommendations for preventing this condition in order to improve the level of preparation of professors. The study carried out the following tasks: the concept of competitive position and its characteristics has been examined; the main factors influencing the competitive position of higher education institutions have been identified; the necessity for quality personnel management to improve the preparation of professors has been established; the issue of burnout as a key issue in the work of university staff has been addressed; the effectiveness of the wellbeing concept and the necessity to apply it as an integral part of the personnel management process to improve the competitive position of universities has been proven. The scientific novelty of the work consists in the analysis of individual factors of competitive position – the quality of education and the level of preparation of professors, the identification of the importance of personnel management in improving the performance of these factors, In addition, recommendations have been made to introduce the concept of wellbeing and to diagnose burnout among teachers in order to strengthen the competitive position of universities

The Republic

The Latvian language as a foreign language (LATS) is learned both in Latvia and abroad. It can be done in higher education institutions, as well as in different courses and self-directed learning. Outside Latvia, there are many countries and higher education institutions where it is possible to acquire LATS. In some higher education institutions, the Latvian language has been taught since the beginning of the 20th century. The oldest LATS teaching traditions are in North America, Germany, Sweden, Lithuania and Australia. In some universities, such as Stockholm University, Masaryk University, Saint Petersburg State University, etc., academically strong study programs in Baltic Studies were established. Over time, study programs have been closed for various reasons, at most leaving the Latvian language as an optional course. At some universities, the Latvian language course has been discontinued. Although in some higher education institutions outside Latvia LATS could be acquired starting from the beginning of the 20th century, the most significant interest in the Latvian language was after the restoration of independence of the Republic of Latvia. Then many higher education institutions in Europe established Latvian language and culture study programs. This interest was related to the geopolitical situation. People tried to get to know the post-Soviet countries through the language. When Latvia joined the European Union, interest in the Latvian language decreased in Europe. Nowadays, interest in the Latvian language has increased in Asia, especially in China. In Asia, it is possible to acquire the Latvian language in China and Japan. There are established different Latvian language bachelor programs in universities of China while in Japan the Latvian language is taught for somebody interested in Latvian culture and traditions more than in the Latvian language.
