In connection with the entry into force of the Federal Law of December 29, 2012 No. 273-FZ “On Education in the Russian Federation” and numerous requests received from educational organizations and training organizations that implement additional professional programs, the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia sends information about the specifics legislative and regulatory support in the field of additional professional education.
Application: for 25 l.
Explanations
on legislative and regulatory support for additional professional education
Abbreviations used:
Federal Law No. 273-FZ - Federal Law of December 29, 2012 No. 273-FZ “On Education in the Russian Federation”;
Procedure - Order of the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia dated July 1, 2013 No. 499 “On approval of the Procedure for organizing and implementing educational activities in additional professional programs” (registered by the Ministry of Justice of Russia dated August 20, 2013, registration No. 29444);
DPO - additional vocational education;
DPP - additional professional programs.
Question 1. In the definitions of basic concepts (Article 2 of the Federal Law) subparagraph 3 - training, subparagraph 5 - qualifications, subparagraph 12 - professional education, a new concept of “competence” has appeared. What is its content?
Through the concept of “competence”, Federal Law No. 273-FZ defines learning outcomes and also implies a description of qualifications using competencies.
The higher education system has already accumulated some experience in developing and implementing educational programs based on a competency-based approach, and now Federal Law No. 273-FZ extends this practice to additional professional education.
You can get acquainted with the main aspects of the competency-based approach in education, including on the Internet, on the websites of the Research Center for Problems of the Quality of Training of Specialists, the Federal State Autonomous Institution “Federal Institute for Educational Development” and others.
Question 2. How should the implementation of additional educational programs be guided by a competency-based approach, and is this mandatory for short-term programs?
In accordance with Part 4 of Article 76 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ, the advanced training program is aimed at improving and (or) obtaining new competence necessary for professional activities, and (or) increasing the professional level within the framework of existing qualifications.
In accordance with Part 5 of Article 76 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ, the professional retraining program is aimed at obtaining the competence necessary to perform a new type of professional activity and acquiring new qualifications.
The structure of the programs must indicate the planned result (clause 9 of Article 2 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ), which is formulated in a competency-based form for all types of DPP, including short-term programs.
It is obvious that organizations implementing additional professional educational programs will need to develop their own regulatory and methodological support, which will demonstrate the implementation of the competency-based approach, including planning learning outcomes (formation of competency models), assessing the level of development of competencies among graduates, etc.
Question 3. In basic terms (Article 2 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ), a definition of an approximate basic educational program is given. Will approximate, standard additional professional programs be developed for use in the educational process?
Educational programs are independently developed and approved by the organization carrying out educational activities, unless otherwise provided by law (Part 5 of Article 12 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ).
Authorized federal government bodies, in cases established by Federal Law No. 273-FZ, organize the development and approval of exemplary additional professional programs or standard additional professional programs, in accordance with which organizations carrying out educational activities develop corresponding additional professional programs (Part 14 of Article 12 of the Federal Law No. 273-FZ).
Standard and exemplary programs will be developed for the following cases established by Federal Law No. 273-FZ:
Standard additional professional programs in the field of international road transport are approved by the federal executive body responsible for developing state policy and legal regulation in the field of transport (Part 7 of Article 76 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ).
Approximate additional professional programs in the field of defense and state security, ensuring law and order are developed and approved by the federal government body in whose interests vocational training or additional vocational education is carried out (Part 3 of Article 81 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ).
Approximate additional professional programs for medical education and pharmaceutical education are developed and approved by the federal executive body, which carries out the functions of developing state policy and legal regulation in the field of healthcare (Part 3 of Article 82 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ).
Typical basic professional training programs and standard additional professional programs in the field of training specialists for civil aviation personnel, ship crew members in accordance with international requirements, as well as in the field of training railway transport workers directly related to train traffic and shunting work, are approved by the federal executive body authorities exercising the functions of developing state policy and legal regulation in the field of transport (Part 3 of Article 85 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ).
In order to provide methodological support for the implementation of Federal Law 273-FZ and the Procedure, the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia will present models of advanced training and professional retraining programs. Access to these resources will be free.
Question 4. Is the concept of “student” applicable in the system of additional professional education, along with the concept of “listener”?
Listeners - persons mastering additional professional programs, persons mastering vocational training programs, as well as persons enrolled in preparatory departments of educational institutions of higher education (clause 8 of part 1. Article 33 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ).
A student is an individual who is mastering an educational program (Part 2 of Article 15 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ).
Thus, both concepts can be used in additional vocational education.
Question 5. The concept of “individual entrepreneurs carrying out educational activities” has appeared. Should they obtain a license to operate educational activities? Can they implement additional professional programs?
Individual entrepreneurs can carry out educational activities only in basic and additional general education programs and vocational training programs (Part 3 of Article 32 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ). Federal Law No. 273-FZ does not provide for the implementation of additional professional programs by individual entrepreneurs.
At the same time, individual entrepreneurs carrying out educational activities directly, that is, individually, have the right not to go through the licensing procedure for educational activities.
Question 6. Is the concept of “teaching worker” applicable to teachers of additional professional education?
The concept of “teaching worker” applies to additional education teachers. In accordance with Part 21 of Article 2 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ, a teaching worker is an individual who has an employment or official relationship with an organization carrying out educational activities and performs duties for training, educating students and (or) organizing educational activities;
Organizations carrying out educational activities to implement educational programs of higher education and additional professional programs provide for positions of teaching staff and researchers who are classified as scientific and pedagogical workers. Teaching staff belong to the teaching staff of these organizations (Part 1 of Article 50 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ)
Organizations providing training and individual entrepreneurs, their students, teaching staff employed in organizations providing training or individual entrepreneurs are subject to the rights, social guarantees, duties and responsibilities of educational organizations, students and teaching staff of such educational organizations ( Part 2 of Article 21 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ).
Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated August 8, 2013 No. 687 approved the nomenclature of positions for teaching staff of organizations engaged in educational activities, positions of heads of educational organizations.
Apparently, there was a typo in the text of the previous paragraph. This refers to the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of August 8, 2013 No. 678
Question 7. Federal Law No. 273-FZ does not imply either federal state educational standards (FSES) or federal state requirements (FGT) in the field of additional vocational education. Paragraph 29 of Article 2 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ defines the quality of education through compliance with the Federal State Educational Standard and the Federal State Standards. Does this mean that the quality of education is not determined in additional vocational education?
In accordance with paragraphs 21-22 of the Procedure, the quality assessment of additional professional education is carried out in relation to:
compliance of the results of mastering the additional professional program with the stated goals and planned learning outcomes;
compliance of the procedure (process) for organizing and implementing an additional professional program with the established requirements for the structure, procedure and conditions for the implementation of programs;
the organization’s ability to effectively and efficiently carry out activities to provide educational services.
Assessment of the quality of development of additional professional programs is carried out in the following forms:
internal monitoring of education quality;
external independent assessment of the quality of education.
The organization independently establishes the types and forms of internal assessment of the quality of the implementation of additional professional programs and their results.
Requirements for internal assessment of the quality of additional professional programs and the results of their implementation are approved in the manner prescribed by the educational organization.
Organizations on a voluntary basis can apply procedures for independent assessment of the quality of education, professional and public accreditation of additional professional programs and public accreditation of organizations.
Question 8. Is additional professional education an integral part of continuing education?
According to Part 2 of Article 10 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ, education is divided into general education, vocational education, additional education and vocational training, ensuring the possibility of realizing the right to education throughout life (continuing education).
Part 6 of Article 10 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ determines that additional education includes such subtypes as additional education for children and adults and additional vocational education.
At the same time, the education system creates conditions for lifelong education through the implementation of basic educational programs and various additional educational programs, providing the opportunity to simultaneously master several educational programs, as well as taking into account existing education, qualifications, and practical experience when receiving education.
Thus, it can be unequivocally stated that additional vocational training belongs to lifelong education (Part 7 of Article 10 of Federal Law No. 237-FZ).
Question 9. Additional education includes additional adult education and additional vocational education. Is continuing vocational education additional education for adults?
Additional education includes such subtypes as additional education for children and adults, as well as additional vocational education (Part 6 of Article 10 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ). Thus, additional vocational education is an independent subtype of additional education.
Question 10. Additional professional education programs include advanced training and professional retraining programs. Does Federal Law No. 273-FZ establish the scope for these types of programs?
The volume of development of DPP is established by the Procedure. Clause 12 of the Procedure defines the minimum permissible volume of development of DPP. Thus, for advanced training programs, the completion period cannot be less than 16 hours, and the completion period for professional retraining programs cannot be less than 250 hours.
Question 11. Federal Law No. 273-FZ states that licensing of educational activities is carried out according to subtypes of additional education. What does this mean? What subtypes of additional education can professional educational organizations implement?
In accordance with Part 6 of Article 10 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ, additional education includes such subtypes as additional education for children and adults and additional vocational education.
According to Part 4 of Article 23 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ, professional educational organizations have the right to carry out educational activities in the following educational programs, the implementation of which is not the main goal of their activities - these are additional professional programs and additional general education programs.
In accordance with Part 2 of Article 75 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ, additional general education programs are divided into general developmental and pre-professional programs. Additional general developmental programs are implemented for both children and adults. Additional pre-professional programs in the fields of arts, physical education and sports are implemented for children.
Question 12. Part 1 of Article 15 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ provides for a network form of implementation of educational programs. Is this applicable to the system of additional professional education?
The network form of implementation of educational programs (hereinafter referred to as the network form) provides the opportunity for students to master an educational program using the resources of several organizations carrying out educational activities, including foreign ones, and also, if necessary, using the resources of other organizations. In the implementation of educational programs using a network form, along with organizations carrying out educational activities, scientific organizations, medical organizations, cultural organizations, physical education, sports and other organizations that have the resources necessary to carry out training, conduct educational and practical training and implement other types of educational activities provided for by the relevant educational program (Part 1 of Article 15 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ).
This article provides a network form for the implementation of any type of educational programs, including programs of additional professional education.
Question 13. Is it possible to use e-learning and distance learning technologies in educational organizations of additional professional education?
The use of e-learning and distance educational technologies (hereinafter referred to as DET) in additional vocational education institutions is possible if conditions have been created in additional vocational education organizations that meet the requirements of Article 16 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ.
At the same time, organizations carrying out educational activities have the right to use e-learning and DET in the implementation of educational programs in the manner established by the federal executive body exercising the functions of developing state policy and legal regulation in the field of education.
Question 14. Can the library collection of an educational organization of additional professional education be equipped only with electronic educational publications?
In accordance with Federal Law No. 273-FZ, in order to ensure the implementation of educational programs, libraries are formed in organizations engaged in educational activities, including digital (electronic) libraries that provide access to professional databases, information reference and search systems, as well as other information resources.
In accordance with Part 1 of Article 18 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ, the library collection must be equipped with printed and (or) electronic educational publications (including textbooks and teaching aids).
Question 15. If additional vocational education is an integral part of additional education, then can an organization of additional education conduct educational activities according to DPP, and an organization of additional vocational education - according to additional general education programs?
In accordance with Part 3 of Article 23 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ, the following types of educational organizations that implement additional educational programs are established in the Russian Federation:
1) organization of additional education - an educational organization that carries out educational activities in additional general education programs as the main goal of its activities;
2) organization of additional professional education - an educational organization that carries out educational activities in additional professional programs as the main goal of its activities.
Educational organizations of additional education have the right to carry out educational activities in the following educational programs, the implementation of which is not their main goal: educational programs of preschool education, vocational training programs (Article 23, part 4, paragraph 5 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ).
Educational organizations of additional professional education, in accordance with paragraph 6 of part 4 of Article 23 of Federal Law No. 273-FZ, can also implement training programs for scientific and pedagogical personnel, residency programs, additional general education programs, and vocational training programs.
Question 16. Is it possible to involve persons who do not have academic degrees and titles in the educational process in organizations of additional professional education?
