Abstract

Abstract The purpose of the study is to solve the problem of matching the parameters of inter-institutional identification of social objects in Russian systems of professional and educational standards, which allows optimizing the procedure of employing young professionals based on their competence potential assessment. The methods of comparison, mathematical and computer modeling were used in the paper. A model of a “competence-based converter” is presented. It makes it possible to evaluate the system of professional competencies generated by a graduate on the basis of a combination of levels of educational achievements in academic subjects presented in the diploma. The use of such a model allows employers to optimize the procedure of the selection of young professionals when filling vacancies in accordance with the requirements of professional standards. The results of applying the “competence converter” are given on the example of the specialty 15.03.02 “Technological Machines and Equipment” and the subsystems of the corresponding Russian professional standards (No. 191, 219, 392, 402, 496).
