DOI: https://doi.org/10.26565/2074-8922-2025-84-38
Purpose. To search for theoretically grounded and practically realized approaches to the formation of
pedagogical competence of students of economic specialties in the modern conditions of digital transformation
of education.
Methods. Theoretical analysis of scientific literature, comparative and analytical method, generalization
of pedagogical experience.
Results. The article deals with the theoretical and methodological foundations of the formation of
pedagogical competence of students of economic specialties in the context of digital transformation of education.
The relevance of the development of the pedagogical component in the professional training of non-teaching
specialists is substantiated, taking into account the current requirements of the labor market, the need for
mentoring, counseling, teaching economic disciplines and popularization of financial literacy. The author
analyzes psychological and pedagogical competencies in the content of educational standards of the first and
second levels of higher education, reveals their fragmentation and insufficient presence in the curricula. The
international experience of the USA, Germany and Poland in preparing students of non-pedagogical specialties
for educational activities is generalized. An integrated approach to the formation of pedagogical competence,
combining theoretical, digital and practical components, is proposed. Practical recommendations are given on
how to include.
Conclusions. The formation of pedagogical competence of students of economic specialties in the
context of digital transformation of education requires an integrated approach that combines theoretical training,
digital literacy and practical interaction. The revealed fragmentation of the pedagogical component in the current
standards confirms the need for its systematic implementation. The proposed approaches and recommendations
contribute to updating educational programs and training economists who are able to effectively transfer
knowledge, provide mentoring and develop in the modern educational space.
