Purpose. To provide a theoretical basis for the structural components of the curriculum for the advanced engineering training of future vocational education teachers in the A5. 33 “Vocational Education (Energy, Electrical Engineering, and Electromechanics),” who are capable of implementing educational programs to train future competitive and market-demanded workers for the reconstruction and modernization of the electric power industry in the Zaporizhzhia region.

Methods. Analysis of scientific literature, comparative-analytical method, generalization of pedagogical experience.

Results. The article examines the significance of advanced engineering training for future vocational education teachers majoring in A5.33 “Vocational Education (Energy, Electrical Engineering, and Electromechanics).” The authors emphasize the need to improve the professional training of future specialists capable of implementing educational programs to train future competitive and market-demanded workers for the restoration and modernization of the electric power industry in the Zaporizhzhia region.

The article identifies key aspects of the issue of proactive training for future specialists, including the need to develop specific professional qualities in them that are oriented toward the strategic needs of a particular industry; additional professional competencies regarding work with innovative production technologies; readiness to operate under a high degree of uncertainty in the regional labor market; and professional mobility, which enables effective work in conditions of job variability.

The theoretical aspects of advanced professional training for future specialists and various strategies for its implementation are examined. The interpretation of the category “advanced engineering training for future vocational education teachers in the specialty A5.33 ‘Vocational Education (Energy, Electrical Engineering, and Electromechanics)’” is clarified.

The study emphasizes the need to improve the content of engineering training for future vocational education teachers in the specialty A5.33 “Vocational Education (Energy, Electrical Engineering, and Electromechanics)” based on the principle of continuous development of their professional competencies.

Conclusions. In accordance with current labor market requirements (updating the list of professions, deepening specialization within specific professions) and changes occurring in Ukraine’s electric power industry, directions for improving the content of advanced engineering training for future vocational education teachers in the specialty A5. 33 “Vocational Education (Energy, Electrical Engineering, and Electromechanics).” In particular, its main components have been identified and characterized: theoretical, design, technological, and organizational-economic.
