Abstract

The article deals with analysis of practical experience of using of teaching technologies that enable to develop specific set of key competencies - learning to learn, social and civic competences, sense of initiative and entrepreneurship, cultural awareness and expression. It is stressed that in accordance with latest research the most effective teaching technologies that enables development of competencies based on innovative thinking are technologies of nonformal
and informal learning (learning in the workplace, planned training during the rotation, exchanges and study visits, self-education, participation in conferences, workshops, etc.).
It is revealed that as the present and future professional activity require increased team-work (especially in project teams), flattening of hierarchies, devolved responsibilities and a greater need for multi-tasking it is crucial to develop those competences that lead to these abilities. The hypothesis was that using specific teaching technologies of non-formal and informal learning would lead to the development of specific set of key competences. In particular, it is presented approaches to development of key competencies through such teaching technologies as: to identify the individual strengths – the methods of selfassessment, coaching, visualization; for the development of entrepreneurial competence, the ability to transform a business idea into a business model – benchmarking, analysis methods of customer preferences; to develop presentation skills – drafting, visualization of presentations, simulations of investment voting; to develop analytical skills – creating individual project diaries and analysing project outcomes, self-evaluation, generating the YouthPath Certificate, discussion.
