The Model of E-Higher Education
Abstract
The obligatory component and precondition for society development is improvement of higher education, which can ensure its mass accessible nature and decrease in education cost. The article shows the development of this field that fosters technological progress, which on the current stage can lead to a new way of education, i.e. the model of e-higher education. The principle feature of e-education is the absence of the university as a center training organization. University authorities in the field of training are delegated, first of all to the state foundation of e-training courses of higher education and to the methodological center that develops the procedure of obtaining different forms of higher education on the basis of mastering the prescribed programs of training courses by the student. The author came to the conclusion that passing over to the non-university model of education is connected with new risks both in the field of higher education organization and related spheres, as it could affect employment of university employees. Labour market tension is increasing due to the trend of combining educational and labour processes by today’s youth. Lower costs and higher productivity can win on the market, thus cheaper for society model of higher education would have higher chances of gaining a certain niche of education service market.
