Cloud solutions of 1C company as a basis for implementation of a system approach in the preparation of a specialist

The article determines the relevance of a system approach in the training of a specialist in the field of managing economic objects. Despite the huge number of university graduates with diplomas in the field of economics and management, in recent years there has been a widespread deficit of qualified specialists. Even successful graduates, possessing a sufficiently large amount of theoretical knowledge in the field of economics and management, are not able to apply this knowledge to solve practical problems of modern business. The main reason for this is the creation of curricula in many educational institutions as a set of disciplines read in different semesters without taking into account their interrelationships and without reference to the main target function of vocational education that is the formation of a specialist. This problem is especially acute in regions where the main “consumers” of educational institutions’ services are mini- and microbusiness, which requires mastering a wide range of practice oriented competencies based on the widespread use of information technologies. The most important, according to the authors, the requirements of mini- and microbusiness, as a potential employer of most graduates of educational institutions of economic profile, to potential employees, are formulated in the article. The work is based on the experience of using the cloud service edu.1CFresh from the 1C company in order to implement a system approach in training specialists in the field of economics and management. The capabilities of the service showed themselves especially brightly during the period of pandemic restrictions, the use of the service made it possible to maintain and even to some extent increase the effectiveness of training due to the redistribution of lectures and practical classes. The service acts as a technological basis for the formation of models of real business processes and is the center around which the knowledge gained in the study of special disciplines is collected. The article discusses the methods for organizing various forms of educational activities using the edu.1CFresh service in the process of training bachelors in “Management” and “Economics” directions.
