Due to the influence of digitalization and other changes affecting different spheres of people’s lives, it became clear that the modern education system must undergo a serious transformation, because the traditional education system is seriously outdated. It is expected that in the near future a significant part of education will be based on modern digital technologies, and the educational process will be implemented with the use of global educational platforms that provide students with the opportunity for global interaction and advanced knowledge and experience. The aim of the study was to formulate the features of industrial and modern education systems, to compare them, as well as to identify a set of competencies that people need to form in order to effectively cope with their professional tasks in the digital age. The issue of the optimal combination of standard educational approaches with the new technologies used in education, which allow to develop competencies that need to be formed among people in order to be in demand in the labour market, is becoming topical.
