Abstract

The urgency of the study is stipulated by the problem of professional training of personnel for the leading industries of the material production of the Russian Federation, one of which is the transport industry, in the context of implementation of the digital economy program and the integrated scientific and technological project “Digital Railway”. The nature of knowledge belonging to the intellectual field of the industry is revealed through the synthesis of the humanitarian (associated with man) and formal logical (associated with artificial systems). New requirements make it necessary to refer to modern educational technologies in the e-learning paradigm 3.0. Such technologies are based on knowledge presented in accordance with the international standard ISO/IEC - in the ontology format. In this regard, this paper is aimed at revealing the possibilities of semantic technologies in the development of virtual learning environments for educational organizations in the network structure of sectoral subordination in the open projects model. Development of ontological content is carried out remotely by joint efforts of representatives of the employer and education. FSBEI of Higher Education “Siberian State Transport University” (Novosibirsk) implements an interuniversity project on the development of the multilingual electronic learning environment “Onto.plus” on the basis of new technologies in the format of the digital economy. The proposed educational solution has been tested in the real learning process. Its effectiveness has been proved for the training of future transport industry personnel; the directions of the project development are outlined.
