The article is devoted to the problem of studying the peculiarities of nonlinear thinking, its manifestations in musical and pedagogical activity. The article presents the way of development of the concept of «nonlinear thinking» in the scientific literature, the analysis of historical preconditions of its origin and registration in the context of post-classical methodology. As a result of theoretical analysis of the works of modern philosophers, teachers, musicologists, the concept of nonlinear thinking of the individual in the field of music is substantiated. If we consider creativity, including music, as a process of evolutionary self-organization of the individual, we can find a successful application of the ideas of synergetics and nonlinear thinking in music pedagogy. In the process of professional training of musicians-teachers and concert performers in institutions of higher art education, the disproportion and ambiguity of the development of nonlinear thinking of the individual is especially noticeable. The practice of higher art education institutions shows that there are contradictions between the development of pedagogical innovations with a focus on changes in educational technologies and the lack of research related to the transformation of professional self-awareness of future professionals, the specifics of their thinking. Musical and creative activity has a harmonizing effect on the psychophysical and social processes of the individual, provides ample opportunities for pedagogical creativity. Correct and timely managerial influences on the part of the teacher allow to choose the optimal ways of self-development of the student's personality. According to the principle of resonant excitation, a small but accurately calculated energy injection at the required space-time point is enough for this. In the process of pedagogical regulation of the educational process should take into account their own trends in the development of the student's personality, strive to strengthen his abilities to work independently and to cooperate with the teacher. The presence of feedback, ie the active influence of the results of the student's activities on his personality is a necessary condition for the intensification of the educational process.

The differences and parameters of using different models depending on educational needs are determined. The essence of the andragogical model is revealed, which takes into account the psychological characteristics of the student, gives more freedom for creative development, generates experience as a source of knowledge, skills and abilities, and uses the level of self-awareness as a lever in shaping future teachers of economics. The basic andragogical principles on the basis of which the organization of training of an adult category of the population takes place are allocated.

The article analyzes organizational and content features of social rehabilitation students’ professional training at higher education institutions in the United States. The two-year college programs for obtaining Associate’s degree, four-year Bachelor’s and interdisciplinary Master’s degree university programs for professional training in social rehabilitation have been characterized. The peculiar features of these programs for each academic degree have been determined. It has been identified that professional training is carried out on an interdisciplinary basis by integrating general scientific, professional and subject-specific knowledge, introducing wide range of elective courses. Three models for training social rehabilitation students have been defined: traditional didactic, problem-solving and facilitated. Preference is given to the facilitated model, the conceptual idea of which is the idea of an integral professional and personal development of a social rehabilitation student as a subject of educational process throughout the study period and further professional activities. According to these models, the key teaching technologies have been divided into three groups: traditional didactic (demonstration, asking and answering questions), problem-solving (discussions, problem-based situations, conversations) and facilitated (interactive technologies such as round-table discussions, brainstorming activities, case study etc.). It has been found out that American college and university teachers prefer interactive (group learning, gaming, reflective, combined, integrated, project-based, information and communication) technologies, the essential features of which are the problem-based nature of co-operative learning, partnership and dialogue. Effective use of interactive technologies helps to involve students in the process of cognition, develops students’ critical thinking, encourages them to participate in learning activities, become independent, develop their professional outlook, reflect upon their own educational and cognitive activities by promptly defining their learning outcomes, modeling real life situations, creating the atmosphere of community and co-operation. It has been found out that the system of professional training provides conditions for professional self-determination, self-development and self-improvement.
