ABOUT INTRODUCTION OF THE INDEPENDENT ASSESSMENT OF QUALIFICATION OF YOUNG SPECIALISTS ON THE REGIONAL LABOUR MARKET
Nikiforov O. A.

Character of a new stage of development of the higher school is defined by need of achievement of accurate parameters of competitiveness of higher educational institutions at regional, national and international levels and their effective inclusion in the solution of problems of social and economic development of the state. In this regard there is necessary an orientation of basic institutes of the higher school to high quality of the academic environment, introduction of modern administration of educational and scientific processes, development of an interuniversity competitive spirit and network interaction, expansion of participation of professional and public communities accompanied by the academic process.

Today in the territory of Russia and the states of the CIS there is no accurate, uniform built and fulfilled system of independent certification of young specialists. At the same time, there is a number of successful examples of interaction of higher education institutions and employers in this direction. In 2010 in Tomsk on the basis of TPU the center of the international certification of technical education and an engineering profession is created. In 2011 The union of industrialists and businessmen of St. Petersburg, city Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the North Western office of Russian joint stock company and Council of rectors of higher education institutions of St. Petersburg created autonomous noncommercial association "Agency of Quality Control of Education". In its structure the center of certification of the personnel is created: managers, experts-auditors, consultants of quality systems of educational institutions. In 2012 the first results were brought by work of the appraisal center and certification of qualifications for the oil and gas extraction branch, the Russian state university of oil created with the participation of experts and gas of I.M.Gubkin. In Kazakhstan not the first year the centers of certification of qualifications of graduates of higher education institutions work.

Thus, activity of Omsk state university of means of communication is one of logical steps in this direction. On the basis of the Cooperation agreement with the Omsk Chamber of Commerce and Industry, concluded creation on its base of the similar center on April 25, 2012 is supposed. On June 27, 2013 on the basis of university the first trial procedure on a voluntary basis for students graduates of economic specialties of OMGUPS is carried out. In it process by subjects of certification the Omsk Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Omsk state university of means of communication acted. Members of the commission were representatives of university, Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the region, employers (Omsk Airport open joint stock company, the Uralsib leasing company). Students graduates of higher education institutions became object of certification. The procedure purpose - independent examination of level of development of the competences received by students during educational process. Problems of process:

  • increase of level of mobility of students on a regional labor market
  • preparation for a labor market of highly qualified competitive specialists
  • improvement of quality of training of specialists in higher education institution.

Certification was carried out in the form of testing. The test base is created by high school workers on the basis of recommendations of specialists experts of the firms consisting in Omsk Chamber of Commerce and Industry. The test base was formed of two blocks:

  • the professional;
  • the psychological.

At a preparation stage in October-December, 2012 125 graduates on specialties were interrogated: "Marketing", "Organization management", "Commerce", "World economy", "Finance and credit". Poll purposes: to reveal degree of knowledge of graduates about procedure of certification and interest level. As a result of 48% of respondents declared that have information on the set object, 24% (30 people) expressed desire to take in it part. 16 people took part in testing and the subsequent interview with members of the commission (10 graduates in "Marketing", 6 graduates in the direction of preparation of a bachelor degree "Organization management"). Successfully passed tests of 7 graduates, from them 6 marketing specialists. Two graduates received certificates of Omsk Chamber of Commerce and Industry with confirmation of tactical level of the management, five people confirmed competences at the level of operational management.

The main problems of the declared procedure in our opinion is the following:

  • lack of the acquired practice of carrying out procedure;
  • lack of sufficient knowledge of students;
  • conservatism of thinking of teachers, students, employers;
  • employment problem on a labor market of the graduates who have successfully passed certification.

Thus, experience of carrying out similar procedure on the basis of one of higher education institutions of Omsk can be useful to educational community of Russia and the region, as from the point of view of working off of mechanisms of carrying out certification, identification its strong and weaknesses, the analysis of mistakes, and from the point of view of real results to all participants of this process. It is necessary to emphasize especially that development of this process is impossible, in any case, at the first stages without maintenance on a labor market of the graduates who have successfully undergone this procedure.
