INTRODUCTION

In modern society, specialists with abilities and skills that allow a professional to

be more maneuverable and successful in present conditions of market relations, carrying
out effectively lots of labor activity, being at the same time quite socially adapted, are in
great demand. The purpose of the article is the need to determine the scientific and
practical importance of the professional competence of the student and teacher as direct
interacting initiators and participants within the educational process, its development, in
turn, is a prerequisite for the further professional formation of a future specialist.
Prospects for the development of education are due to both the use of innovative
methods and technologies in the meaningfulness of the educational process, and the

growth of the teacher’s professional competence.

(Alferova N.G., 2018). Recently, in

psychological and pedagogical research, the issue of forming a professionally competent
working specialist in any area of modern production has become particularly relevant.

Within the recent social environment, the model of sociopsychological of a

competent specialist emphasizes such personality psychological qualities as
independence in solving complex problems, autonomous use of knowledge, and skills,
discipline, a satisfactory image of one

s self; the ability to conduct coordinated

communication, management of personal communication in a team, the internal need for
self-development. (Dubskikh A.I., & Zerkina N.N., 2018).

METHODS AND MATERIALS

Great importance can be assigned to a communication process, in the

implementation of one of the important functional properties of professional
competence, namely, the one that integrates the development of creative abilities, so
ingenious communication takes place both internally and at the intercultural level,
implying the usage of a foreign language. The new many-sided and all-around world puts

forward new requirements to a successful application procedure in general and work
with personnel in particular [9]. As far as a distinctive feature of the present state of
affairs in various fields of economy, business is the presence of joint ventures and/or all
kinds of relations with foreign partners, so it is hard to imagine communication with the
personnel without a foreign language, as a means of communication. Almost everyone
agrees that for modern managers, English is not a luxury, but a tool to do some efficient
work in the professional sphere. (Zerkina N.N., & Kisel O.V., 2018).

Competence can be considered as the formation of the ability, for the qualitative

functioning of an employee, in the field of a particular discipline to apply some special
knowledge, skills, ways of thinking, and awareness of responsibility for their actions
aimed at organizing and applying creative abilities in a professional sphere. Of great
importance in the implementation of the functional properties of professional and
personal competence, integrating the development of creative abilities is the
communication process.

The role of personal, business, and professional communication, which is growing

in the modern world, is manifested both in real live communication and in the form of
electronic communication via email, social networks, instant or chart messengers and
their options, print, audio and even video messages, as well as internal options phone
calls. The indicated possibilities of communicative resources imply the expansion of the
external boundaries of communication to almost global limits. That is, participants in
such a wide range of interactions need to use a foreign language to carry out both
personal and industrial-business communication.

Such a need entails an increase in demand for workers in the professional non-

linguistic spheres such as technical, engineering, and economic, which can carry out the
communication process using knowledge of a foreign language.

User functioning in a foreign language makes it possible to expand the scope of the

employee’s business activity. Modern requirements put forward to specialists suggest

modern, innovative approaches to teaching, in particular, English. One such approach in
teaching English may be methodological management. The effectiveness of methodological
management is determined by its functions (forecasting, planning, development, decision-
making, organization, and control accounting), which are aimed at implementing some
necessary stages of managing activity in training. (Kisel O.V., et all., 2019).

Along with the increase of several foreign language users among the future

specialists right in their professional activities, a very important issue is the prospect of
fruitful interaction between a foreign language teacher and students of non-linguistic
specialties in the field of the professional orientation of the learning process and as a
result of improving the quality of forthcoming activities of a future specialist according to
the specialty.

So, language education on a professional technical basis within non-linguistic

specialties is becoming an important component that takes part in creating the effective
life of a future specialist in the global multilingual and multicultural space of the human

community. “English plays a large role in the life of modern students, as it is the dominant

language of international communication, trade, cooperation, and business.
The development of modern IT technologies not only contributes to the development of
a foreign language, but also emphasizes its relevance.

The increase in information and communication resources in language

professional training contributes to the formation of a foreign language to be a real
means of communication between future specialists and foreign-language colleagues.

When implementing a functional-communicative approach, specially oriented

types of speech activity are developed to master a foreign language in line with the
specifics of a future profession within the framework of developing the professional
competence of students. Attracting a sociocultural approach means the cultural
development of a future young specialist, contributing to building successful business
activity in the proposed conditions of intercultural communication, and an indicator of
the presence of such ability is intercultural competence, complementing the professional
one from the position of inter-lingual, language-oriented professional communication in
the framework of effective professional activities. Functional-communicative, socio-
cultural approaches and IT modern technologies involved in the formation of

professionally oriented competence are focused on the student’s personal characteristics,

self-improvement, and development of the individual creative potential. Specially
oriented language training in the framework of non-linguistic technical, economic, and
other specialties allows students to act in the future as a mediator between different
languages and cultures in business and socio-cultural spheres, that is, it becomes a kind

of tool for the formation of social mobility, activity and adaptability of a young specialist’s

consciousness.

To accomplish such a task of social adaptation and professional self-realization,

it is necessary to use an interdisciplinary approach in teaching foreign languages for
professional purposes, which is a coordinated, equivalent, mutually contributing
interplay of educational disciplines, combined by one whole educational and didactic
system.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

Such an implementation of interdisciplinary relations provides the basis for the

formation of communicative and professional competencies, which in turn becomes the
key to high-quality teaching of a foreign language in non-linguistic specialties.

For example,

when creating a work program with a foreign language for

professional purposes teaching, it should be noted that the use of a foreign language of a
specialty helps to improve the professional competence of a future specialist, namely,
broadens the horizons in the process of obtaining information in a foreign language and,
accordingly, improves the quality and level of business or industrial sphere of
communication.

They are the following:

Professionally-oriented language education in the conditions of a non-language

educational environment is the process of developing the ability to;

Use an additional foreign language as a communication tool in the field of

professional activity, taking into account its non-language specificity;

Recognize a foreign language professional culture; to build an adequate

thought-out tolerant dialogue with participants in the inter-lingual process of
communication;

The implementation of intercultural competence presupposes the ability,

of students, to maintain a communicative interaction to realize certain personal and

professional intentions in reality, and cooperate calmly within the framework of diverse
situational communication.

So, it is necessary to form in future specialists the ability to put into practice

a foreign language interpretation of the linguistic picture of the world and specialty with
further direct and easy access into the open information and communication space of
professional activities. The process of combining the perception of the world fragments
through the linguistically designed language of the specialty is happening using
a foreign language as a speech tool for a fragmented expression of the original native and
newly emerging, re-cognizable linguistic worldview and the specialty itself within a large
communicatively designed space of modern reality.

CONCLUSION

1.

Linguistic education in the conditions of a non-linguistic university acts as an

important instrument for the successful functioning of a person in a multilingual and
multicultural community of people.

2.

In the era of the development of information technologies leading to the

modernization of both global and Uzbek education, it is necessary to develop new
effective principles for the formation.

3.

Effective coordinated implementation of communicative language.

4.

Professional competencies for foreign languages for professional purposes in

non-linguistic specialties and areas.
