Abstract

Period of active global cybernation and business automation was marked by a problem for Russian employers in the form of a shortage of qualified personnel capable of ensuring the development and competitiveness in world business markets. There was a problem of forming a system for training new human resources that would satisfy the changing economic realities. The Russian Federation had a higher education system as one of the most stable and well-functioning mechanisms for training personnel for all economical sectors until the 90th of the last century, before the country collapse and the beginning of political and economic reforms. An indicator of the system effectiveness was that the graduates of Russian universities were invited to work by well-known corporations from many countries of the world. Over the years of the reforms, Russia has lost its previous model of education, which significantly affects the quality of personnel training today [1]. Many Russian enterprises are forced to follow the path of independent training and specialists retraining. At first, training was organized locally, it was by chance, but Russian entrepreneurs began to adopt foreign experience in forming a knowledge system in a company and even create corporate universities over the time. The study examines preconditions for the system formation and the corporate education market development, provides current models of knowledge accumulation and proposes the author's cognitive model of personnel professional development.
