Emphasis is placed on logical consistency of pedagogical-psychological disciplines with the content of vocational subjects (business operations and services, building technology, electrical engineering, engineering technology, hygiene, transport etc.), including the subject of training. The teaching practice is focused on acquiring knowledge and skills necessary for teachers in the educational environment of secondary school. For these reasons, teaching is focused on the observation and evaluation of specific educational processes depending on the specialization of individual students. Students perform teaching practice in secondary schools under the expert guidance of a teacher.
