The article analyzes some general trends and outlines strategic benchmarks of the domestic dimension for reforming the educational sphere. In the context of modern theoretical paradigms, globalization, innovation, quality of education as trends that actualize and cause reform educational processes in Ukraine are distinguished. Globalization poses a challenge for education in general and for national educational systems, in particular, a number of problems that require a speedy response both at the state level and at the level of civil society institutions. The answer to them should be the leitmutif of further reform of the domestic educational sector, where the key position is not the unification of higher education, but wide access to the diversity of educational, scientific and cultural achievements of other countries, a deep combination of educational and scientific activities. We are talking about a new philosophy of education and science, learning and education, new approaches, goals and priorities, that is, a new paradigm for the development of higher school. In terms of innovation, the education system must change the paradigm of building and functioning, steadily moving into a river ahead of education, when scientific knowledge, changing its orientation from technogenic and economic to humanistic and environmental, outpaces the transformative activities of people. The quality of education is seen as a significant step towards European integration, because, first of all, promoting European cooperation in ensuring the quality of education is a requirement of the Bologna process; secondly, quality assurance of education is one of the leading conditions that promotes mobility, connectivity and attractiveness of the higher education system of any country, the main component of the prestige of higher education institutions; thirdly, the main responsibility for quality assurance lies with the institution of higher education in accordance with the principle of institutional autonomy.

The paper put forward hypotheses that the conditions for the formation of human capital in the education system and the quality of education are decreasing, that the transition to a post-industrial economic system provides a priority demand and stimulation of the work of highly qualified specialists with higher education. To assess the hypotheses, an analysis carried out using Rosstat data on the structure of unemployment by education levels and on the level of wages of employed workers with different levels of education. The generalization of the results of the analysis made it possible to establish that the value of human capital formed in the education system, the quality of education is steadily decreasing. The human capital of workers, formed in the higher education system, is most in demand in modern conditions, but the quality of higher education, the value of the human capital formed in the process of obtaining it, is steadily decreasing. The reason for the decline in the quality of education is the administrative and control style of management used in the education system and the outdated form of strategic management based on the application of orders, standards and control, which, being inherited from the industrial economy and, as is known, is ineffective and ineffective. Competitive in modern conditions.

In article ways of maintenance of quality of higher education in Belarus are considered. It is shown that they are the result of interaction of two tendencies. The first is inheritance and development of traditions of the Soviet education system. Belarus system tries to conserve fundamentality and scientific character of the contents of education, to keep in basis the orientation on Five years' term of training. The second one is use the consequences of world processes, such as mass character of higher education, its practical orienta-tion, Influence of market relations on education, etc. All establishments of education of an education system of Belarus are subjected to the state control. Irrespective of subordination and patterns of ownership of establishments of education the state con-trol is carried out as: – Self-checking which is carried out by establishments as the procedure which is carried out for an internal estimation of quality of education under the program worked out by establishment education or as a necessary stage of the certification which are carried out in the order, developed by department of quality assurance of education; – Inspections of establishments spent by department of quality assurance of education and other competent bodies; – Inspections by department of quality assurance of education of committees, departments of educa-tion of local executive and administrative bodies. Monitoring of quality of education at a level of universities is carried out in the form of the current and final certification of students for the certain period of training (a semester, a rate, all period of training). Oral, written and practical forms are used. Forms of certification of students are determined by educational standards of specialities. For the first time standards of specialties of higher education in republic have been developed in 1998-1999. In 2008 standards of new generation (361 specialities) have been created. In standards results of modernization of system of the higher school are reflected: two-level preparation of the graduate (the special-ist, the master); the differentiated terms of preparation of the graduate at the first level (from 4 till 6 years of training on a speciality); competent approach to formation of model of the specialist; increasing of controlled independent work of students in total amount training hours; orientation to innovative techniques and tech-nologies of teaching. The problem which is necessary to solve is to update of the training courses content from scientific and practical point of view. It is difficult because this step may lead to including more information that stu-dent is able to get. In this case it is important to emphasize that methodology of education is opposite to methodology of development of knowledge in science. In a science, as it is known, speaking computer language, change of operational system occurs from time to time. It allows to state information of past periods simply and briefly. There is reconsideration and re-structuring of all volume of the scientific information from the point of view of a new scientific paradigm. Changes of scientific knowledge in the content of training courses also should be nonlinear both on time and on intensity of the response to changes occurring in a science. During normal (extensive) develop-ment of a science the new knowledge can quite take root into educational process in an additive mode. Intro-duction of the knowledge which has arisen during change of a scientific paradigm demands radical transfor-mation of forms and methods of training and even phase transition of all education system. Differently, the content and methodology of education, following by the changes in a science and practice, should vary peri-odically to provide quality of preparation of specialists according to modern social and culture realities. Key words: education, quality, the content of education, methodology.

The article defines that the education system depends on a balanced educational policy, competence of state decisions and correctly placed accents in determining strategic priorities. Achieving a new quality and development of the domestic educational system is impossible without significant changes in the system, processes, mechanisms of public education management. It is established that the quality of higher education is perceived differently by different subjects of the educational process. For students, it is, above all, the knowledge, skills and practical skills necessary for successful employment and career growth. When it comes to the employer, they associate quality education with the training of professionals who have the necessary competencies and are able to adapt to dynamically changing production conditions. It is emphasized that quality assurance should provide an educational environment in which the content of programs, educational opportunities and tools meet the goal. However, there are a number of problems in ensuring the quality of higher education in Ukraine. The main problems in ensuring the quality of higher education, as well as the quality of training in the Free Economic Zone of Ukraine are revealed. Among them are: systematic underfunding of the higher education system; inconsistency of the level of preparation of entrants to the requirements of higher education institutions; lag of Ukrainian higher education from a number of world and European trends in the development of higher education and improving its quality; the problem of employment of graduates, etc. It is proved that despite a number of regulatory regulations, specially created bodies, there are still problems that somewhat reduce the quality of higher education. The expected quality of education is formed under the influence of a set of conditions and factors that cover the methodological, theoretical and practical aspects of education management. The review of the problems shows that the way to quality higher education lies through its definition of the right standards, sufficient resource base, highly qualified staff, proper structural organization and effective management. One of the conditions for improving the quality of higher education is to strengthen the responsibility of universities for the results of their activities by expanding the democratic principle of their functioning and deepening autonomy.
