Abstract
In the article the author attempts to make historical and philosophical analysis of certain trends as to development of vocational training for skilled workers in Ukraine during a period of its independence. Using the philosophical content of the concept “trend” and applying correlative categories of philosophy (possibility and reality, necessity and fortuity, history and logics, etc.), the author undertakes analysis and cognitive operation aimed at comparison of modern vocational education trends with sectors development lines that prevailed in the Soviet era and exist in the new socio-economic conditions of today. The genesis of vocational training system is considered as a dialectical process of gradual loss of inherent features of the past and acquisition of new features stipulated by interaction of objective and subjective factors. It is determined that basic, fundamental concepts of philosophy which reflect the most essential, natural links and relations of reality and knowledge, favouring the achievement of the highest level of scientific generalization, provide with possibility of comprehensive disclosure and adequate analysis of phenomena and processes that currently take place within this branch of education. This approach, in particular, promotes to overcome consideration disadvantages inherent in some sciences suffering with unwarranted narrow context, exaggerated descriptiveness and insufficient depth of problems comprehension resulting in superficial conclusions. The author gives reasons that application of philosophic categorical apparatus creates conditions for defining objective evidence of development trends in vocational training taking into account their dynamics, duration in time, peculiarities behavior, the nature of results and consequences. It is proved that, given the practical orientation of scientific analysis, the use of correlative categories will contribute to cultivation of progressive and innovative trends, termination of regressive acts, unwanted or harmful trends. Conclusion that due to formation of specific sustainable organization of thinking process and ability to reproduce the most essential properties of phenomena the categories of philosophy in their entirety are the perfect instrument of knowledge of existing and possible trends of development of national and international educational systems is made.
