In the conditions of increased competition in the labor market, the task of improving the system of training qualified personnel in higher education is being updated. One of the ways of their implementation is the formation of a system of dual training of higher education applicants, which will contribute to the elimination of the use of traditional forms and methods of education, increase the quality of personnel training, considering the modern requirements of the implementation of employers. The dual form of acquiring competencies is an effective way of obtaining the necessary knowledge and skills. It is possible to combine the study of theoretical material at a higher education institution with practical training at enterprises, organizations, and institutions. The realities of the modern educational space in the previous conditions of the COVID-19 pandemic and today's wartime conditions in Ukraine require greater use of dual education in higher education as one of the elements of an innovative form of education in support of a competitive educational environment. To study this issue, we turn to foreign experience in different countries; educational institutions that implemented dual professional education have a long history of successful development, recognized at the world level. Today, in the world's advanced countries, the block of practical training accounts for about 70% of the educational process, which contributed to a significant increase in the number of specialists working in a pre-selected specialty. Therefore, using the world experience of implementing dual education in educational institutions in the complex modern conditions of the domestic educational environment is highly relevant and requires further research. The article aims to reveal the world experience of implementing a dual form of competence acquisition in higher education and the application of directions in Ukraine. The results. Having analyzed the experience of some countries in implementing dual education, we outline the importance of complex quality education in the way of training highly qualified specialists with critical competencies and appropriate professional suitability in the labor market. Therefore, today, there is a reformation of the domestic system of higher education on the way to the introduction of two-formal education in the aspect of forming an equal partnership of higher education institutions, employers, and applicants, providing them with practical experience in the conditions of actual professional activity. The implementation of personnel dual education will contribute to the improvement of the quality of education, the growth of the number of employers in the professional training of the future, the approximation of the training of specialists to the modern requirements of the labor market and companies in demand in various fields of activity in the context of the post-war recovery of the domestic economy. The concept of the induction form of acquiring competence in the field of higher education differs from the traditional strengthening of the training of practical specialists, which provides training in higher education institutions of highly qualified personnel by the needs of enterprises in various fields of activity and the requirements of the modern labor market. Keywords: education, world experience, dual form of education, student of higher education, competitive specialists, higher education.
