Abstract:
Currently, both domestic and leading foreign university are
developing and discussing all possible directions for the further development of
higher medical education. Two leading challenges determine the relevance of this
historical moment for all national higher education systems. This is, firstly, the
explosive development of distance learning technologies caused by the need to revise
pedagogical technologies in connection with quarantine measures during the
coronavirus pandemic. And secondly, a sharp aggravation of competition in the
educational services market, which ranks 4th in the world in terms of profitability
after the military, industrial and pharmaceutical business.
Main part. One of the phenomena of the global democratic transformations in the
world, initiated by the Bologna Process, is the increase in the availability of higher
education for many segments of the population and the emergence of competition
between higher educational institutions.
