Purpose. In the modern world, information and communication technologies (ICT) have a significant
impact on all sectors of society. They influence changes in the economy, politics, culture, and education. The 
Methods. To solve the tasks, a complex of general scientific (analysis, synthesis, analogy, comparison,
collation, generalization, classification, systematization) and empirical (analysis of philosophical, psychological,
pedagogical, methodological literature, normative documentation) methods is used.
Results. Using the devices used to process information as a sign of information technology, 6 stages of
ICT development have been identified. It was determined that educational technologies in vocational education
are a system of scientific and engineering knowledge, as well as methods and tools used to develop, collect,
store, process and transmit information in the subject area. The didactic tasks solved by ICTs are usually the
following: increasing motivation to learn; intensifying the learning process; ensuring flexibility of the learning
process; improving the organization of teaching; increasing individualization of learning and the work of the
teacher, etc. The analysis of scientific sources has revealed a few features of modern ICTs, namely: cross-border;
mass; accessibility; modularity; interactivity. Based on these features, the main directions of ICT use in the
informatization of national education were identified: distance education; interactive teaching and learning
complexes (TLC); demonstration and modelling computer programs.
Conclusions. In the field of education informatization, there is currently a contradiction between the
trends of its informatization and the present education system, which reproduces the educational model of the
previous industrial society. This contradiction can be resolved only through a fundamental restructuring of the
whole national education system. The development of information culture through self-education is one of the
tasks for informatization of education, requiring conscious educational activity, as well as the development and
implementation of corresponding methods. A promising direction for further research on this issue is to identify
the organizational and pedagogical conditions for the development of information culture of future masters in
vocational education through information technology and to test them in practice.
