Study of managerial competence of future education managers in the context of using electronic educational environment

The article considers the question of the features of the training future education managers, their manage skills, the structure of which provides knowledge and experience in using the electronic educational environment. This problem is important, especially now, in the context of the coronavirus pandemic, when educational institutions work mainly in a distance format. Now every manager of an educational institution must be competent not only in the field of information technology and have appropriate digital competence but also knowledgeable in the implementation of the electronic educational environment of the institution, in particular, to resolve certain management issues. During literature analysis, we found that there are many studies that describe the use of ICT in the process of forming the managerial competence of future education managers. But, there are few studies that describe the features of the work of the manager in the electronic learning environment (ELE) and solve the problem of their training in this context. To obtain objective information about the level of managerial competence in future heads of higher pedagogical education, we organized a survey that found that future education managers do not have a clear idea of ELE and do not understand its potential for management. During the study, we developed levels of managerial competence of future managers, to which we added skills related to the use of ELE. The training of students lasted from 2017 to 2020 according to the methodology that took into account the structure of managerial competence knowledge and skills of using ELE. We conducted an experimental study that determined the effectiveness of the methodology for the formation of managerial competence of future heads of educational institutions in the context of ELE. This study found that such training contributes to the formation of the future manager, develops his managerial skills, allows to solve the problem of developing managerial competence in future education managers using ELE, is an effective means of implementing educational programs at the university.
