The article states that when reforming the public administration of Ukraine in the direction of its democratization and adaptation to European standards, one of the main issues is staffing the public administration with highly professional and competent professionals capable of working in government at the transformational stage of society. One of the priority areas of socio-economic development of Ukraine is the qualitative improvement of the system of training, retraining and advanced training of civil servants.Having set a course for the development of a qualitatively new civil service institution, the state has identified the need to reform the institute of professional training of civil servants. The adoption of the Law of Ukraine “On Civil Service” in 2016, which defined the guiding ideas and fundamental principles of the functioning of the institute of civil service in Ukraine, is considered to be a kind of start in reforming the institute of professional training of civil servants.An important problematic aspect of the issue of education of professionalism in the process of training civil servants are educational institutions that conduct educational activities in the field of training future civil servants. The implementation of educational activities in the field of professional training of civil servants is aimed at training highly qualified specialists in the field of civil service and public administration belongs to the competence of exclusively state institutions of higher education.The main issue of quality professional training of civil servants is the development of standards of higher education on the basis of their clear compliance with the needs of the civil service of Ukraine, namely professional training.It is necessary to bring the educational standard of knowledge «Public Administration and Management» in accordance with the requirements of current legislation and the practice of European countries regarding the calculation of the educational process in the process of educational activities and training of civil servants.Advanced training of civil servants is carried out on the basis of educational programs developed by relevant scientific and pedagogical workers-specialists in the field of public administration and governance. Currently, educational programs for the training of civil servants are being modernized. For example, training of civil servants in the European transfer and accumulation system is a borrowing of European Community practice in this area and allows for accurate accounting of learned material and also creates additional opportunities for government regulation in the field of civil servants.
