It is actual to elucidate the contribution of each factor to the professional competence of guards and the infl uence of these factors on their superior’s appraisal. Therefore we hypothesize that assessment of the contribution of the guard’s personal features into his professional competence and their infl uence on their appraisal by superiors will be helpful in staffi ng private security services and improving their working qualities. The object of the current study was the psychobiological and professional factors determining the professional competence of a security worker. The aim of the work was to establish the role of separate factors determining the professional competence of security workers, as well as to study the professional competence of security workers in formativeness of superior’s appraisal and psychobiological factors, qualitative indices and their analysis. The study subject was 118 security workers and their four direct superiors.Factor analysis applied for competence assessment of security workers has shown that in internal appraisal (of summarized identifi ed variables) the highest value belongs to psychic qualities (22%) as well as age and physical development (20%), followed by physical preparedness (16%), professional activity (15%), theoretical and practical preparedness (14%) and fi ghting abilities (13%). The (external) appraisal by security service superiors, when only the observation and questioning methods are applied, are not suffi ciently informative and reliable. The factor of the-oretical and practical preparedness has been found to have a similar weight both in external and internal appraisal, however, a number of factors, such as psychic qualities, physical preparedness and fi ghting abilities, in internal and external appraisal have a cardinally opposite value.Keywords: security service, competence, factors.

These requirements are considered for innovative forms of control: level test (recognition - substitution - productive activity - decision-making in problem situations); test action (practical test); situational test (analysis of the situation of the future professional activity). Special attention is devoted to the consideration of this form of professional competence assessment as interdepartmental exercises that allow you to check special developed students competences when students demonstrate their knowledge, skills and personal qualities and carry out their professional activities in practice. Developed professional competence assessment tools for specialized university cadets and students can serve as a basis for further coordination of the educational process.

The role of the teacher at the present stage is transformed into a high mission of creating a professional personality, which is intended to instill in students readiness to acquire knowledge and improve professional skills throughout their lives. According to the authors, the goal of pedagogical education is continuous general and professional development of a university teacher to achieve high results in the practical professional activity. In general, the professional competence of a University teacher is a synthesis of professionalism (scientific, special, methodological, psychological and pedagogical training), creativity (creativity of relationships, the optimal use of tools, techniques, teaching methods) and art (acting and public speaking). And today it becomes obvious that it is impossible to “add up” a competent professional from a simple sum of knowledge, because in addition, a University teacher should have a great sense of moral responsibility when teaching the modern generation of students.
