The implementation of qualitative inclusion in higher education institutions is one of the conditions for the constant development of Ukraine. The analysis of statistical data, made by the authors, shows a permanent reduce of the number of people with disabilities, who obtain higher education now. Based on the analysis of modern researches and media materials, authors identify the reasons for this tendency. They believe that one of the main barriers is the inability of young people with disabilities to get a job in their specialty and build a successful professional trajectory. Having analyzed the few of Ukrainian universities’ websites, authors propose the development of a unified approach for the special educational services provision. Authors also determine its main elements as: definition of educational difficulties; systematic monitoring of the availability of higher education institutions and of the level of satisfaction of special educational services; expansion of the collected information about students with disabilities; programs of communication ethics among teachers, students and persons with disabilities; psychological services; monitoring the observance of the rights of students with disabilities; inclusion of students with disabilities in academic mobility programs; employment of students with disabilities; determination of quality indicators for the special educational services provision; providing full information on the possibility of provision services to students with disabilities; representation of students with disabilities in the advertising products of institutions – as equal members of the student community. The authors consider these elements as an appropriate base for determination of the quality of higher education institutions inclusion. At the same time, teachers use the individual approach, adjusting a system of «smart adaptation» for students with different physiological and psychological characteristics.

Choice of profession is a social phenomenon that every person has to face in life. Numerous studies convince us that not only the well-being of a person depends on the chosen work, but also his attitude to himself and life in general, therefore, the right and timely professional choice is very important. Research about factors of career self-determination of students of higher education institutions in Ukraine shows that self-determination is an important factor in the socialization of young person, and the factors that determine students' career choices become an actual problem of nowadays. The present study involved full-time and part-time students of Institute of Philology and Mass Communications of Open International University of Human Development "Ukraine" in order to examine the factors of career self-determination of students of higher education institutions (N=189). Diagnostic factors of career self-determination of students studying in the third and fourth year were carried out using the author's questionnaire. Processing of obtained data was carried out using the Excel 2010 program; factorial and comparative analysis were applied. Results of the study showed that initial stage of career self-determination falls down on the third and fourth studying year at the university, when an image of future career and career orientations begin to form. At the same time, the content of career self-determination in this period is contradictory and uncertain, therefore, the implementation of pedagogical support of this process among students is effective.

The shift in perception, from librarians as providers of information to librarians as educators in the effective use of information, requires the profession to become aware of differing approaches to the development of teaching and of the professional consciousness of educators: also of the way certain forms of teaching and CPD are privileged over others within higher education institutions, and why. This paper reports on and synthesises a range of theoretical works in this area, to explain how becoming an effective information literacy educator requires not just an awareness of practice, but developing it, through a continous interaction between theory and practice. The librarian-as-educator must engage in professional development practices which, ultimately, require the continuous questioning of the very foundations of IL, and work actively towards raising awareness of these processes throughout their institutions.

Currently, the organizations have to adapt quickly in a forced way to the economic, social, technological and health changes that national and international society demands, especially when it comes to higher education, where those who will be part of the activity in the near economic future, and educational organizations are no exception. For this reason, the Tecnológico de Monterrey as an educational organization has seen the need to transform its educational model throughout its history, however, the most shocking change it has applied to its educational model has been in 2019 with the application of the Tec21 Model, which is considered unique due to its close relationship with organizations and challenges of working life, as well as being flexible and personalized. The Tec21 Model had to be modified earlier than expected, to adapt to the contingency of COVID-19, as a consequence, its educational management was also affected to develop the model as best as possible, the same situation that happened with all the institutions of higher education nationwide, taking similar strategies for their educational success.

Purpose This paper aims to propose a framework to map partnerships as practiced in higher education institutions (HEIs) and trace the current mode of engagement between HEIs and their partners. This paper reflects on the alignment between current practices and what is understood in the literature as “true” partnerships. We are interested in the different modes of engagement that are labeled by the HEIs as partnerships and consider the plasticity of the term. The interest is in how the term is operationalized by HEIs and how variations in approach can be accounted for while still maintaining some stability and common understanding of the term partnership. Design/methodology/approach Drawing on extant literature in the field of cross-sector partnerships, a three-dimensional framework is proposed to map partnerships as practiced in HEIs. Furthermore, this paper draws on insights gained from the partnership stories of 13 leading principles of responsible management education (PRME) signatories to evidence examples of how this framework can help us to categorize the different types of engagement that the HEIs call partnerships. These case stories were gathered in the fall of 2019, based on a brief inquiry form sent to the 39 PRME signatories who were part of the PRME Champions Cycle 2018–2019. Findings This paper sees cases where faculty drive interaction on sustainable development goal-related issues with external stakeholders, but where the impact of these interactions seems to reside within the main business of the HEI (teaching and research). In contrast, much partnering work addresses broader social impacts. Of particular, interest in partnerships that seek to address a specific local issue, first and foremost and doing so in such a way as to apply the unique resources of the HEI working in multi-stakeholder networks. This paper also notes important variation between individual faculty-driven initiatives and initiatives where the school provides a strategic framework to support these efforts. Research limitations/implications By focusing on the academic sector and its stakeholder partnerships, this paper contributes to the literature on cross-sector partnerships. In particular, the specifics of this context and the importance of, for example, academic freedom have been under-researched in this field. Furthermore, the framework presented is novel in that it helps us to grasp the nuances of external university partnerships that can form out of individual, programmatic and other institutional levels. Practical implications From a practice perspective, the framework offers a useable tool for HEI partnership managers to position themselves and their activities and reflect more on how they organize external partnerships. Further, this tool offers a more precise framework for the discussion on partnerships within the PRME to sharpen the partnership instrument and bring more clarity about what is meant by the partnership for the goals. Originality/value The paper offers a novel partnership portfolio framework that contributes both to theory and practice. The framework aids in mapping the locus of benefits/outcomes and the material and affective commitments made by the HEI to bring these collaborations about. In dimensionalizing partnerships in this way, this paper can conceptualize a balanced portfolio in an HEI’s partnerships for the goals.
