Development of social and communicative competence of a specialist in the context of an educational organization of a modern professional space

Active social and technological transformations in modern society necessitate enhancing the communicative competence of specialists. Any professional activity requires communication skills, which are an integral part of professional competencies.
Effective interaction with others is achieved through the development of active listening skills, the ability to negotiate, work in a team, and argue one's position. Developing specialists' communication skills is a key factor in improving the quality of educational processes. Current trends and challenges affecting the development of communication competencies are driven by rapid social, technological, and educational changes. Understanding and taking them into account allows us to create more effective strategies for developing communication skills in professionals and students.
The purpose of this study is to identify key conditions that facilitate the development of a high level of communicative competence among specialists in the context of educational organizations in the modern professional environment.
Relevance. The modern labor market is characterized by constant dynamic transformation, with increasingly relevant and specific demands placed on qualified specialists. Technological advances are driving a growing demand for the acquisition of new knowledge and the development of competencies, simultaneously challenging the education system to continuously improve.
The education system must be highly adaptable and flexible to effectively meet the demands of the modern labor market and the state's strategic needs for training highly qualified specialists, which is a critical aspect of ensuring the country's economic independence. Within the modern scientific paradigm, graduates of higher professional education must possess a set of qualities that reflect the concept of professional competence. One of the fundamental and key competencies that a graduate of any level and profile of professional education must possess is communicative competence.
