How many levels is vocational education divided into. Educational levels of higher education. Terms and procedure for the implementation of the norms of the Federal Law

The education system in the Russian Federation

According to the Federal Law of December 29, 2012 No. 273-FZ "On Education in the Russian Federation", the education system includes 2 main types - general and professional education, which in turn are divided into the following levels:

General educationconsists of four levels:

preschool education is provided by licensed institutions for children up to the age of 6 - 7, that is, before they formally go to school.

Primary general education for children aged 7 to 10 includes grades 1-4.

Basic general (incomplete secondary) education for children aged 11 to 15 takes 5 years and includes grades 5-9.

Average total (complete secondary) education students receive in the upper grades of secondary school for 2 years of study - grades 10-11 - and complete it at the age of 17-18 years.

The program of secondary general education is compulsory and is considered mastered after completion of education in 11 grades and passing by each student of the state final certification. Certification is carried out in the form unified state exam (USE) in Russian language and mathematics (mandatory exams), as well as in additional subjects from the list established by law (from 1 or more) at the choice of the graduate. The results of passing are accepted as entrance tests for admission to the university. Graduates who successfully pass the exam receive certificate of secondary general education , and to obtain a certificate, it is enough to pass the exam in the Russian language and mathematics. This gives the holder the right to continue education at the level of secondary vocational education. Access to higher education is provided based on the results of the Unified State Examination with elective exams - the number and subjects are determined by the applicant depending on the requirements of the university in the chosen direction.

Professional education includes 5 levels:

Secondary vocational education can be obtained through two types of programs:

Training programs for qualified workers and employees;

Training programs for mid-level specialists.

Graduates of secondary vocational educational organizations after graduation receive a diploma of secondary vocational education.

After completing the educational program of the first type, graduates are granted access to the labor market, as well as the right to continue their studies in the programs of the second type and higher education (subject to obtaining secondary general education).

Educational organizations implementing programs of the second type can be both independent educational organizations and structural subdivisions of the university. As a rule, in this case, the programs are well coordinated with the programs of universities in the relevant areas.

Currently in Russia there is a multi-stage system higher education , as a subspecies of vocational education, consisting of the following levels:

Higher education - bachelor's degree (240 credits). The bachelor's degree is awarded after completing a 4-year study program. Bachelor's programs are developed in various areas. The bachelor's degree provides applied education, since the holder receives a sufficient amount of professional knowledge, skills and abilities for employment in positions requiring higher education (without specifying the level). However, a bachelor's degree is a condition for admission to master's programs. The state final certification includes the defense of the thesis and the passing of the state final exams. After successfully passing the certification, a bachelor's degree is issued.

Higher education - specialty (300-360 credits). The qualification of a specialist in Russia is a legacy of the former single-stage system of higher education and, in its essence, corresponds to a master's degree. Holders get the opportunity for professional activities that require a higher level of higher education than a bachelor's degree. And they are also given access to master's programs in areas other than those already received in the specialty, and to training programs for highly qualified personnel (postgraduate education). The term of study for obtaining the qualification of a specialist is at least 5 years. The state final certification for obtaining the qualification of a specialist includes the defense of a project or thesis and the passing of state final exams. Obtaining the qualification of a specialist is confirmed by a diploma of a specialist. The level of higher education - specialty is equivalent to the level of higher education - magistracy.

Higher education - magistracy (120 credits) is a two-year course of study, focused mostly on research activities (up to 50% of the student's workload) compared to the specialist's programs. But, first of all, the magistracy is an in-depth training in analytical and professional-practical activities in a specific area, including the development of elements of scientific and pedagogical work. The State Educational Standard defines only the general requirements for master's degree programs, without establishing requirements for the content of education. Universities have the right to independently make decisions on the content of master's programs depending on the specialty, as well as independently establish the admission procedure for applicants (conducting exams, interviews, etc.). Access to master's programs is available to holders of a bachelor's degree, as well as specialist qualifications. Holders of higher education degrees who wish to enter a master's program in another specialty must pass additional examinations that reflect the requirements for passing the chosen master's program. The state final certification for obtaining a master's degree includes the defense of a master's thesis and the passing of state final exams, the results of which are issued a master's degree.

Higher education - training of highly qualified personnel (postgraduate education) is carried out based on the results of mastering the programs for training scientific and pedagogical personnel in graduate school (adjuncture), residency programs, assistantship-internships. The duration of training is determined by the relevant program and is 3-4 years. The training ends with the passing of candidate examinations and the preparation of a candidate's dissertation. The holders receive an appropriate diploma. Obtaining this level of education does not automatically lead to the award of the degree of Candidate of Sciences, but only increases the level of knowledge, skills and abilities of the owner and provides an opportunity for a deeper and more qualified approach to the creation of a scientific qualification work (dissertation) for the degree of Candidate of Sciences. Also, the development of this level of higher education provides an opportunity to work in positions for which Russian legislation defines mandatory requirements (high school teacher, researcher, etc.).

Degrees

The assignment of academic degrees is regulated by the Federal Law of August 23, 1996 No. 127-FZ “On Science and State Scientific and Technical Policy” and other by-laws. Academic degrees are not included in the education system, because are the result of official recognition by the state and society of the achievements of the owner in the scientific and research fields of activity. At the same time, the condition for obtaining a scientific degree is the presence of a previous higher education, so they act as a logical continuation of increasing the level of education of the holder and are closely related to the educational system of Russia.

Traditionally, there are two levels of academic degrees in Russia: PhD and PhD . A scientific degree is awarded to persons who have defended a scientific qualification work (dissertation). Based on the results of a successful dissertation defense, a diploma is issued conferring the degree of candidate of science or doctor of science.

For a degree PhD usually requires 3-4 years of postgraduate study (adjuncture, etc.) after obtaining a specialist or master's degree, preparing a dissertation, and then defending it and awarding a degree. However, obtaining a PhD degree is possible without postgraduate studies. To do this, the holder of a higher education (specialist or master's degree) can be transferred to the appropriate scientific positions and must prepare a dissertation within no more than 3 years. After defending his dissertation, he is awarded the degree of Candidate of Sciences.

Academic degree PhD is awarded after obtaining the degree of Candidate of Sciences and can be obtained in two ways, as well as the degree of Candidate of Sciences - by continuing doctoral studies for up to 3 years and preparing a doctoral dissertation, and then defending it and awarding a scientific degree, or without completing training, provided employment in relevant scientific positions for the preparation of a doctoral dissertation for no more than 2 years, its subsequent defense and the award of a doctoral degree.

    Introduction.

The education system in the Russian Federation is a set of interacting:

successive educational programs of various levels and directions, federal state educational standards and federal state requirements;

networks of educational institutions and scientific organizations that implement them;

bodies exercising management in the field of education, and institutions and organizations subordinate to them;

associations of legal entities, public and state-public associations carrying out activities in the field of education.

    The concept of "education".

The term "education" can be considered in different meanings. Education is one of the most important areas of public life. Education is a branch of the social sphere and a branch of the economy. They often talk about education as a qualification requirement when filling certain positions, when concluding an employment contract.

Education is understood as a purposeful process of upbringing and education in the interests of a person, society, state, accompanied by a statement of the achievement by a citizen (student) of educational levels (educational qualifications) established by the state.

Thus, education is a process that meets the following criteria:

1) purposefulness;

2) organization and manageability;

3) completeness and compliance with quality requirements.

    Levels of education.

In educational legislation, the concept of "level" is used to characterize educational programs (Article 9 of the Law of the Russian Federation "On Education"), educational qualifications (Article 27). In Art. 46 provides that the contract for the provision of paid educational services should, among other conditions, also determine the level of education.

The educational level (educational qualification) is the minimum required volume of the content of education, determined by the state educational standard, and the permissible limit of the lower level of mastering this volume of content.

The Russian Federation has six educational levels (educational qualifications):

    basic general education;

    secondary (complete) general education;

    initial vocational education;

    secondary vocational education;

    higher professional education;

    postgraduate professional education (clause 5, article 27 of the Law of the Russian Federation "On Education").

    additional education.

The achievement of one or another educational qualification is necessarily confirmed by the relevant documents. Mastering a certain educational level is a prerequisite for continuing education in a state and municipal educational institution of a subsequent educational level. The presence of professional educational qualifications is a condition for admission to certain types of activities, to occupy certain positions.

It can be concluded that the level of education is determined by the level of the implemented educational program. General educational programs are implemented at such levels of education as preschool, primary general, basic general, secondary (complete) general, and professional educational programs - at the levels of primary, secondary, higher and postgraduate education. Additional educational programs (Article 26 of the Law of the Russian Federation "On Education") are carried out within each level of professional education.

Preschool education (Article 18 of the Law of the Russian Federation "On Education") pursues the goals of educating young children, protecting and strengthening their health, developing the individual abilities of children and preparing them for schooling.

General education includes three stages corresponding to the levels of educational programs: primary general, basic general and secondary (complete) education. The tasks of primary general education are the upbringing and development of students, teaching them to read, write, count, basic skills of educational activities, elements of theoretical thinking, the simplest skills of self-control, a culture of behavior and speech, as well as the basics of personal hygiene and a healthy lifestyle. Primary general education is the basis for obtaining basic general education, which should create conditions for the upbringing, formation and formation of the personality of the student, for the development of his inclinations, interests and abilities for social self-determination. It is the basis for obtaining secondary (complete) general education, as well as for primary and secondary vocational education. Secondary (complete) general education should develop in students an interest in knowing the world around them, their creative abilities, and form the skills of independent learning activities based on the differentiation of learning. At this stage of education, additional subjects are introduced at the choice of the student himself in order to realize his interests, abilities and opportunities. Thus, the primary professional orientation of schoolchildren is carried out.

Primary vocational education (Article 22 of the Law of the Russian Federation "On Education") provides training for skilled workers (workers and employees) in all major areas of socially useful activity on the basis of basic or complete general education.

Secondary vocational education (Article 23 of the Law of the Russian Federation "On Education") is aimed at training mid-level specialists, meeting the needs of the individual in deepening and expanding education. The basis for obtaining it can be basic or complete general and primary vocational education. Secondary vocational education can be carried out at two educational levels - basic and advanced. The basic one is implemented according to the main professional educational program that provides training for mid-level specialists, which should include general humanitarian, socio-economic, mathematical, general natural sciences, general professional and special disciplines, as well as industrial (professional) practice.

The term of study on the basis of basic general education is at least three years. An increased level of secondary vocational education ensures the training of mid-level specialists with an advanced level of qualification. The main professional educational program at this level consists of two components: a training program for a mid-level specialist in the relevant specialty and an additional training program that provides in-depth and (or) extended theoretical and (or) practical training in individual academic disciplines (cycles of disciplines). The term of study in this case is at least four years. In the document on education, a record is made of the passage of in-depth training in the specialty.

Higher professional education (Article 24 of the Law of the Russian Federation "On Education") is aimed at training and retraining specialists of the appropriate level. It can be obtained on the basis of secondary (complete) education or secondary vocational education.

The main educational programs of higher education can be implemented continuously and in stages.

The following levels of higher education have been established:

Incomplete higher education;

Undergraduate;

Training of graduates;

Master's degree.

The minimum terms of study at these levels are two, four years, five and six years, respectively. The first level is an incomplete higher education, which must be carried out as part of the main educational program. Completion of this part of the program allows you to continue higher education or, at the request of the student, to receive a diploma of incomplete higher education without final certification. The second level provides for the training of specialists with a bachelor's degree. It ends with a final certification and the issuance of an appropriate diploma. The third level of higher education can be carried out according to educational programs of two types. The first of them consists of a bachelor's degree program in a specific area and specialized research or scientific and pedagogical training of at least two years and ends with a final certification, which includes a final work (master's thesis), with the qualification "master", certified diploma. The second version of the educational program involves preparation and state final certification with the qualification of a specialist (engineer, teacher, lawyer, etc.), which is also confirmed by a diploma.

Postgraduate professional education (Article 25 of the Law of the Russian Federation "On Education") provides an increase in the level of education, as well as scientific and pedagogical qualifications on the basis of higher education. It can be obtained in postgraduate, postgraduate and doctoral studies, created in educational institutions of higher professional education and scientific organizations. It can also be conditionally divided into two stages: preparation and defense of dissertations for the degree of candidate of science and doctor of science in the specialty.

Vocational training should be distinguished from vocational education (Article 21 of the Law of the Russian Federation “On Education”), which has the goal of accelerating the acquisition of the skills necessary for the student to perform a certain job. It is not accompanied by an increase in the educational level of the student and can be obtained in educational institutions of primary vocational education and other educational institutions: in interschool educational complexes, training and production workshops, training areas (workshops), as well as in educational departments of organizations that have the appropriate licenses, and in the order of individual training from specialists who have passed attestation and have the appropriate licenses.

Additional education forms a special subsystem, but it is not included in the structure of education levels, since it is designed to provide additional educational needs of citizens, society and the state.

    Forms of education.

Defining education as a purposeful process of training and education in the interests of a citizen, society and the state, it is necessary to take into account that it can be obtained in various forms that best meet the needs and capabilities of the subjects of the educational process, primarily the student. The form of education in the most general sense can be defined as a way of organizing the educational process. The classification of forms of education is carried out on several grounds. First of all, depending on the method of participation of an educational institution in the organization of the educational process, education is distinguished in an educational institution and outside it.

In an educational institution, training can be organized in full-time, part-time (evening), part-time forms. The differences between them are mainly in the volume of the classroom load, more precisely, in the ratio between the classroom load and the student's independent work. For example, if in full-time education, classroom work should account for at least 50 percent of the total volume of hours allotted for mastering the educational program, then for full-time students - 20, and for part-time students - 10 percent. This also determines other features of the organization of the educational process in different forms of education (in particular, determining the number of consultations, methodological support, etc.).

In recent years, in connection with the development of information technologies (computerization, Internet resources, etc.), distance learning technologies are becoming more widespread. Educational technologies implemented mainly with the use of information and telecommunication technologies with indirect (at a distance) or incompletely mediated interaction between the student and the teacher are called remote (Article 32 of the Law of the Russian Federation "On Education"). It provides access to education for those citizens who, for some reason, do not have the opportunity to receive education in traditional forms (those living in remote areas, suffering from certain diseases, etc.). Distance educational technologies can be used in all forms of education. The procedure for using distance learning technologies was approved by order of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation dated May 6, 2005 No. 137. Along with traditional information resources, specialized textbooks with multimedia support, educational videos, audio recordings, etc. are used to support the distance learning process. Current control and intermediate certification can be carried out by traditional methods or using electronic means that provide identification of a person (digital electronic signature). Mandatory final certification is carried out in the form of a traditional exam or thesis defense. The students go through the production practice as usual, while the training can be organized using remote technologies. The ratio of the volume of educational, laboratory and practical classes conducted using distance technologies or through direct interaction between a teacher and a student is determined by the educational institution.

Outside the educational institution, family education, self-education and external studies are organized. In the form of family education, only general education programs can be mastered. This form of education is relevant for certain categories of students who may experience difficulties in mastering educational programs under normal conditions. It is also possible to receive the help of teachers working on a contractual basis or parents. In any case, the student passes the intermediate and state final certification in an educational institution.

In order to organize family education, the parents (other legal representatives) of the student conclude an appropriate agreement with the general education institution, which may provide guidance on the development of the general education program by the teachers of the institution, the conduct of individual lessons in all or several subjects by the teachers of this institution or their independent development. According to the contract, the educational institution provides the student with free textbooks and other necessary literature for the period of study, provides him with methodological and advisory assistance, provides the opportunity to perform practical and laboratory work on existing equipment and carries out intermediate (quarterly or trimester, annual) and state certification. The work of teachers, whom the educational institution engages to work with students under this form, is paid on an hourly basis based on the teacher's tariff rate. The procedure for accounting for the classes conducted is determined by the educational institution itself.

Parents together with the educational institution are fully responsible for the development of the educational program by the student. Parents should be paid additional funds in the amount of the cost of education of each student at the appropriate stage of education in a state or municipal institution. The specific amount is determined based on local funding standards. Payments are made in accordance with the agreement from the savings fund of the educational institution. Additional expenses of parents for the organization of family education,

exceeding the established standards are covered by them at their own expense. Parents have the right to terminate the contract at any stage of education and transfer the child to another form of development of the educational program. An educational institution also has the right to terminate the contract if the student fails at the end of two or more quarters in two or more subjects, as well as in case of failure at the end of the year in one or more subjects. At the same time, re-mastering the program in this form is not allowed.

Self-education is an independent development of the educational program by the student. It acquires legal significance only in combination with an externality. External study refers to the certification of persons who independently master the educational program. External study is allowed both in the system of general and in the system of vocational education. The regulation on receiving general education in the form of an external student was approved by order of the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation of June 23, 2000 No. 1884. Any student has the right to choose an external student as a form of education. To apply for an external study, you must submit an application to the head of the educational institution no later than three months before the certification and submit the available certificates of intermediate certification or a document on education. The external student is provided with the necessary consultations on academic subjects (including pre-examination) in the amount of at least two hours, literature from the library fund of the institution, the opportunity to use subject rooms for laboratory and practical work. External students pass an intermediate certification in the manner determined by the institution. If they passed the certification for the full course of the transfer class, they are transferred to the next class, and at the end of a certain stage of education they are allowed to the final certification.

According to a similar scheme (albeit with some peculiarities), professional educational programs are implemented in the form of an external student. For example, the Regulation on external studies in state, municipal higher educational institutions of the Russian Federation, approved by order of the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation of October 14, 1997 No. 2033, provides the right to receive higher education in this form to persons with secondary (complete) general or secondary vocational education. Admission and enrollment in universities are carried out in a general manner. In addition to a student card and a record book, an external student is issued an attestation plan. It is provided free of charge with exemplary programs of academic disciplines, assignments for control and term papers, and other educational and methodological materials. The current certification of external students includes taking exams and tests in the disciplines provided for by the main educational program in the chosen field of study or specialty; reviewing control and term papers, reports on production and undergraduate practice; acceptance of laboratory, control, term papers and practice reports. The examinations are administered by a commission of three full-time professors or associate professors, appointed by order of the dean of the faculty. The passing of the exam is recorded by the members of the commission. Written responses and other written material accompanying the oral response shall be attached to the minutes. Other types of current certification are carried out orally. The assessment is set in a special attestation sheet, which is signed by the members of the commission and endorsed by the head of the department. Positive assessments are then put down by the chairman of the commission in the record book. The final certification of external students is carried out in accordance with the generally established procedure and provides for the passing of state exams and the defense of a graduation project (work). Certification can be carried out both in one and in several universities.

In the system of vocational education, the right of students to choose individual forms of education may be limited, taking into account the specifics of training in certain specialties. For example, Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of April 22, 1997 No. 463 approved the List of specialties, the receipt of which in part-time (evening) form and in the form of external studies in educational institutions of secondary vocational education is not allowed; Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of November 22, 1997 No. 1473 approved the List of areas of training and specialties for which it is not allowed to receive higher professional education in correspondence form and in the form of external studies. In particular, such lists include some specialties in the field of healthcare, transport operation, construction and architecture, etc.

Educational legislation allows a combination of various forms of education. At the same time, for all its forms, within the framework of a specific basic educational program, there is a single state educational standard.

    Conclusion.

Thus, education as a system can be considered in three dimensions, which are:

social scale of consideration, i.e. e. education in the world, country, society, region and organization, state, public and private education, secular and clerical education, etc.;

level of education (preschool, school, secondary vocational, higher vocational with different levels, advanced training institutions, postgraduate, doctoral studies);

profile of education: general, special, professional, additional.

There are different levels of education in Russia. They are regulated by a special Law on Education of the Russian Federation 273-FZ Chapter 2 Article 10, which was recently supplemented.

According to the law, the levels of education in the Russian Federation are divided into 2 main types - general education and professional. The first type includes preschool and school education, the second - all the rest.

General education

According to Article 43 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation, all citizens are guaranteed free general education in municipal institutions. General education is a term that includes the following types:

  • Preschool education;
  • School education.

The second type is divided into the following subspecies:

  • Initial;
  • Main;
  • Average.

Pre-school education is primarily aimed at developing skills that will help in the future in the assimilation of school material. This includes the primary elements of written and spoken language, the basics of hygiene, ethics and a healthy lifestyle.

Both municipal and private institutions of preschool education are successfully functioning in the Russian Federation. In addition, many parents prefer to raise their children at home, not sending them to kindergarten. Statistics says that the number of children who did not attend preschool institutions increases every year.

Primary education is a continuation of preschool and is aimed at developing students' motivation, honing writing and speaking skills, teaching the basics of theoretical thinking and various sciences.

The main task of basic education is the study of the foundations of various sciences, a deeper study of the state language, the formation of inclinations towards certain types of activity, the formation of aesthetic tastes and social definition. During the period of basic education, the student should develop the skills of independent knowledge of the world.

Secondary education aims to teach to think rationally, to make independent choices, various sciences are studied more deeply. A clear idea of ​​the world and the social role of each student in it is also formed. As never before, it's important pedagogical the influence of the class teacher and other teachers.

Professional education

In Russian federation professional education levels are divided into the following subtypes:

  • Initial;
  • Average;
  • Higher.

Primary education is provided by institutions that provide working professions. These include vocational schools (vocational schools, which are now gradually being renamed PTL - vocational lyceum). You can enter such institutions both on the basis of 9th and 11th grades.

Secondary education includes technical schools and colleges. The former train basic-level specialists, the latter implement a system of in-depth training. You can enter a technical school or college on the basis of 9 or 11 grades, some institutions can only enter after 9 or only after 11 grades (for example, medical colleges). Citizens who already have primary vocational education are trained according to a reduced program.

Higher education provides training of highly qualified specialists for various sectors of the economy. Universities, institutes and academies (in some cases also colleges) are engaged in the training of specialists. Higher education is divided into the following levels:

  • specialty;

Bachelor's degree is a mandatory level for obtaining the other two. There are also various forms of education. It can be full-time, part-time, part-time and external.

Levels of education in the world

In the world, a huge number of educational institutions are engaged in teaching students and.

  • One of the best systems operates in the USA; more than 500 thousand foreign students study in the institutions of this country. The main problem of the American education system is the high cost.
  • A very high educational level is also offered by the higher educational institutions of France, education in the universities of this country, as in Russia, is free. Students only have to provide their own maintenance.
  • In Germany, population countries and foreign applicants are also entitled to free education. There was an attempt to introduce tuition fees, but the attempt failed. An interesting feature of education in this country is that there is no division into bachelor's and specialist's degrees in the legal and medical industries.
  • In England, the term Higher Education is only used to refer to institutes or universities where graduates receive a doctoral or academic degree.
  • Also, education in China has recently become popular. This happened thanks to the teaching of most disciplines in English, however, the cost of education in China is still quite high.

The methodology of the British publication Times Higher Education (THE) was the basis for this rating, created by Times Higher Education in conjunction with the Thomson Reuters information group. Developed in 2010 and replacing the well-known World University Rankings, the ranking is recognized as one of the most authoritative in determining the quality of education in the world.

Criteria for evaluating universities:

  • The academic reputation of the university, including scientific activities and the quality of education (data from a global expert survey of representatives of the international academic community)
  • The scientific reputation of the university in certain areas (data from a global expert survey of representatives of the international academic community).
  • General citation of scientific publications, normalized for different areas of research (analysis data of 12 thousand scientific journals over a five-year period).
  • The ratio of published scientific articles to the number of teaching staff (data from the analysis of 12,000 scientific journals over a five-year period).
  • The amount of funding for university research activities in relation to the number of faculty members (the indicator is normalized by purchasing power parity, based on the economy of a particular country).
  • The volume of funding by third-party companies for the research activities of the university in relation to the number of faculty members.
  • The ratio of public funding for research activities to the total research budget of the university.
  • The ratio of the teaching staff to the number of students.
  • The ratio of the number of foreign representatives of the teaching staff to the number of local ones.
  • The ratio of the number of foreign students to the number of local students.
  • The ratio of defended dissertations (Ph.D.) to the number of teaching staff.
  • The ratio of defended dissertations (Ph.D.) to the number of bachelors going to the title of master.
  • Average remuneration of a teaching staff member (normalized to purchasing power parity, based on the economy of a particular country).

How is the score determined?

The maximum score that the studied university can receive is 100 points.

  • For the level of teaching activity, the quality of education, the number of highly qualified teachers, the university can get a maximum of 30 points.
  • For the scientific reputation of the university, a maximum of 30 points is given.
  • For the citation of scientific works - 30 points.
  • For the development of innovative projects, attracting investments to them, the university receives a maximum of 2.5 points.
  • For the ability of the university to attract the best students and teachers from all over the world to its ranks - 7.5 points.

Commentary on Art. 10 of the Law "On Education in the Russian Federation"

The commented provisions are not new for domestic educational legislation, since the norms on the structure of the education system contained the system-forming acts of educational legislation: and the law on higher education (Article 4). Meanwhile, in the article under consideration, the relevant provisions of these normative acts are somewhat revised and synthesized into normative material, taking into account the multi-level nature of education.

1. The commented law proposes a new approach to the definition of the education system, taking into account changes in the system of educational relations in general. It lies in the fact that:

Firstly, the education system includes all types of existing sets of mandatory requirements for education: federal state educational standards, federal state requirements, as well as educational standards and educational programs of various types, levels and (or) directions.

In order to ensure the quality of education, the legislator provides for: federal state educational standards for basic general education and professional programs, including for preschool education, which was not previously provided. However, this does not mean the need for certification for students at this level. The law introduces a ban on both intermediate and final certification of students in preschool educational organizations;

federal state requirements - for additional pre-professional programs;

educational standards - for educational programs of higher education in cases provided for by the commented law or a decree of the President of the Russian Federation. The definition of the educational standard is given in paragraph 7) of Art. 2 of Law N 273-FZ, however, we find a more accurate interpretation of it in Art. 11 of the Law (see).

Educational programs are also included in the education system, since they represent a set of basic characteristics of education and organizational and pedagogical conditions. Their allocation is due to the fact that if either federal state educational standards, or federal state requirements, or educational standards are developed, the educational program is drawn up on their basis. In the event that these are not available (for additional general developmental and with certain characteristics, for additional professional programs * (14); vocational training programs are developed on the basis of established qualification requirements (professional standards), educational programs are the only set of requirements for obtaining this kind of education .

Secondly, the education system includes, along with organizations engaged in educational activities, also teachers, students and their parents (legal representatives) (up to the age of majority of the student), which makes them full participants in the educational process. Of course, such a position should be supported by specific rights and guarantees for such subjects. To this end, the legislator introduces Chapter 4, dedicated to students and their parents, and dedicated to pedagogical, managerial and other employees of organizations engaged in educational activities (and).

Thirdly, the education system includes, along with the bodies exercising management in the field of education at all levels of government, advisory, advisory and other bodies created by them. The sign of jurisdiction is not singled out; instead, the sign of the creation of a body by the body exercising management in the field of education is introduced. Such a replacement does not bear fundamental differences. At the same time, the former wording of "institutions and organizations" might not allow attributing, for example, public councils to the education system.

Fourth, the education system includes organizations that provide educational activities and assess the quality of education. The above is explained by the need to understand the education system as a single inseparable process of the movement of knowledge from the teacher (educational organization) to the student. This process also includes settlement centers for information processing, and attestation commissions, etc. This circle does not include individuals (experts, public observers, etc.).

Fifthly, in addition to associations of legal entities and public associations, the education system includes associations of employers and their associations operating in the field of education. This position is due to the activating direction of the integration of education, science and production; understanding of education as a process culminating in employment and orientation in this regard to the demands of the world of work. Employers take part in the work of educational and methodological associations (), are involved in the state final certification for basic professional educational programs, in the qualification exam (the result of vocational training) (,); employers, their associations have the right to conduct professional and public accreditation of professional educational programs implemented by an organization engaged in educational activities, and draw up ratings on this basis ().

Paragraph 3 of the commented Article 10 of the Law on Education in the Russian Federation introduces a system of types of education, subdividing it into general education, vocational education, additional education and vocational training.

Vocational training, despite the seemingly absent "effect" of educational activities - increasing the educational qualification of the student, also implies the need to master the educational program of secondary general education, if it is not mastered.

This system should make it possible to realize the educational needs of a person throughout life, that is, not only the opportunity to get an education at any age, but also to get another profession (specialty). To this end, a variety of educational programs are being introduced.

The system of education levels is being changed, according to which the structure of general education in accordance with the Law includes:

1) preschool education;

2) primary general education;

3) basic general education;

4) secondary general education;

In the structure of vocational education:

1) secondary vocational education;

2) higher education - bachelor's degree;

3) higher education - training of a specialist, magistracy;

4) higher education - training of scientific and pedagogical personnel.

The main innovation is that: 1) pre-school education is included as the first level of general education; 2) initial vocational education is not singled out as a level; 3) higher professional education absorbs the training of scientific and pedagogical personnel (previously carried out within the framework of postgraduate professional education).

The change in levels of education is caused by the prescriptions of the Bologna Declaration, the International Standard Classification of Education.

The question arises: what are the consequences of changing the system of educational levels?

Modernization of the system of levels of education affects the system of educational programs and types of educational organizations.

Changes in educational programs repeat the corresponding changes in the levels of education.

At first glance, the introduction of preschool education into the system of educational levels looks frightening. As a rule, this implies the existence of federal state educational standards with confirmation of the results of the development of a preschool educational program in the form of a final certification. However, in this situation, the Law provides for a "big" exception to the rule, which is justified given the level of psycho-physical development of children at such an early age. The development of educational programs of preschool education is not accompanied by intermediate certification and final certification of students. That is, confirmation of the fulfillment of the requirements of federal state educational standards should not be expressed in the form of testing the knowledge, skills, abilities of pupils, but in the form of reporting by employees of a preschool educational organization on the work done, aimed at implementing the requirements of the standard. Pre-school education is now the first level of education, but the legislator does not make it compulsory.

Law N 279-FZ now provides for primary general education, basic general education and secondary general education as separate levels of education. In the former Law N 3266-1, they were the stages of education.

Since the level of initial vocational education "drops out", it is replaced by two programs introduced into secondary vocational education, which are a successful combination of instilling skills in the field of initial vocational education with the knowledge and skills necessary to perform jobs that require the level of secondary vocational education. As a result, the main programs of secondary vocational education are divided into programs for the training of skilled workers and programs for the training of mid-level specialists.

The change in the higher education system leads to its division into several sublevels:

1) undergraduate;

2) specialist training, magistracy;

3) training of scientific and pedagogical personnel.

The term "professional" itself is no longer applied to higher education, although the latter is still included in the system of vocational education.

The bachelor's, master's and specialist's degrees, which have already become familiar to us, retain their legal significance, now side by side with the training of scientific and pedagogical personnel. A specialty, as an educational program, is provided where the standard period for mastering an educational program in a particular area of ​​training cannot be reduced.

It should be noted that in the system of levels of education, the allocation of sublevels is dictated by different tasks. In the secondary school, primary education is regarded as incomplete education and parents are obliged to ensure that their children receive primary, basic general and secondary general education. These levels are compulsory levels of education. Students who have not mastered the basic educational program of primary general and (or) basic general education are not allowed to study at the next levels of general education. The requirement of obligatory secondary general education in relation to a particular student remains in force until he reaches the age of eighteen years, if the corresponding education was not received by the student earlier.

The allocation of sublevels in higher education is dictated by the need to indicate the independence of each of them and self-sufficiency. Each of them is evidence of higher education without "subjunctive moods". Judicial practice in this regard, based on the law on education of 1992, in contrast, approaches the assessment of the bachelor's degree as the first level of higher education, insufficient for occupying positions that require high professional training, for example, a judge. This approach has been implemented in the entire system of courts of general jurisdiction, including the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation * (15).

Hence, the concept of incomplete higher education can only refer to the fact of an incomplete normative term for mastering one or another educational program of a certain level of education. Therefore, when the educational program in a specific area of ​​training is not fully mastered, it is impossible to talk about passing a specific level of education with the issuance of a document on education, which is also confirmed by judicial practice * (16).

It should be noted that in the regional legislation there are examples of ranking depending on the "level" of education (specialist, master), for example, wage rates. This practice is recognized as inconsistent with the law, since in this case the provisions of Part 3 of Art. 37 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation, art. and 132 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, which prohibit discrimination in the sphere of labor, including discrimination in the establishment and change of wage conditions.

Following the logic that each of the "types" of the level of higher education, whether it be a bachelor's degree, a specialist's degree or a master's degree, confirms the completed education cycle, characterized by a certain single set of requirements (Article 2 of the Law, "Basic Concepts"), then no restrictions can be set for one species over another.

However, this statement requires clarification: certain restrictions are already provided for by the Law itself. What regulations do this follow from? We find the answer in Art. 69 "Higher education", which says that persons with a secondary general education are allowed to master undergraduate or specialist programs (types are equated).

Persons with higher education of any level are allowed to master the master's programs. This emphasizes the higher position of the magistracy in the hierarchy of higher education.

However, further we see that the training of scientific and pedagogical personnel in graduate school (adjuncture), residency, assistantship-internship is possible by persons who have an education not lower than higher education (specialist or master's degree). That is, in this case, we see that the specialist "at the finish line" corresponds in terms of the level of his training to the master's program. But the training of scientific and pedagogical personnel is already the next level of higher education.

Thus, the education system, according to the law on education, is a single system, starting with preschool education and ending with the training of scientific and pedagogical personnel, as the necessary level of education for engaging in certain types of activities or certain positions (for example, residency).

The change in the levels of education led to a change in the types of educational organizations: the expansion of opportunities to create various types of organizations that provide training. In addition to the educational ones themselves, organizations that have educational units in their structure are actively involved in the education system, according to the Law.

Additional education is a type of education and includes such subtypes as additional education for children and adults and additional vocational education. Each of them involves the implementation of individual educational programs.

Additional educational programs include:

1) additional general education programs - additional general developmental programs, additional pre-professional programs;

2) additional professional programs - advanced training programs, professional retraining programs.

The allocation of various types of educational programs, including those within the framework of additional education, makes it possible to ensure the continuity of education throughout life. The proposed system of educational programs provides the possibility of simultaneously mastering several educational programs, taking into account existing education, qualifications, practical experience in obtaining education, training in an abbreviated training program.
