Abstract

The problem issues of training in the process of practical activity (service police training) have been highlighted. A comprehensive analysis of the current normative and legal base regulating this process has been carried out. Each component of the training has been separately analyzed; shortcomings of the existing system of service training have been defined; and the ways to eliminate them have been suggested. The necessity of implementing the interaction between practical departments and institutions of higher education (IHE) in the process of service training on a permanent basis has been substantiated; the way how this interaction should take place has been explained, what it is aimed at and how it can lead to the evolution of the system of training in the process of service activity. The author has grounded the need to increase hours of enrollment status on some disciplines, and to introduce new disciplines into curricula. The author has also indicated the necessity of creating a new concept of service training, and suggested a new scientifically grounded model of training in the process of service activity. The author has substantiated the necessity of introducing a new model of education in the process of service activity, which is based on the effective interaction between the practical units and institutions of higher education of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine on the principles of scientific and methodological control over the training process, including the holding of classes and consultations, as well as the exchange of experience between institutions of higher education and practical units. Besides, the necessity of interaction and sharing knowledge in the process of service training with the structural units of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine, the State Service of Ukraine for Emergencies and other services and institutions that can provide the police officers with useful knowledge and skills has been substantiated.
