Research of experience of realization of distance education technologies in the system of advanced training of personnel

The research problem and the rationale for its relevance. Active use of distance technologies in the organization of educational processes has allowed to accumulate an array of empirical data, which become the subject of analysis in pedagogical science. The research of educational process subjects' opinion about digital educational technologies allows us to identify a sample of respondents who positively perceive distance educational technologies and express their willingness to use distance learning in the future, including in the process of advanced training. Generalization of the experience of using distance education technologies of such a sample is the basis for conclusions about improving the process of organizing additional professional education. Therefore, the goal of the research is to generalize the experience of using distance education technologies of those participants of the educational process, who generally have a positive attitude to the use of this type of technology in professional development. In this case, the objective and positive approaches to the organization of staff development using distance education technologies are supported. Methodology. The authors of the article used theoretical and empirical methods of scientific cognition, which allowed us to achieve the goal of the research. The analysis of existing developments in the field of distance education applied in professional development allowed us to identify the main approaches to assessing its effectiveness: identifying only negative or only positive effects. It substantiates the constructiveness of the objective approach in studying the experience of using distance education technologies in the organization of professional development in the framework of additional professional education. The conducted Internet survey allowed to identify the problematic aspects of the respondents' use of the distance format in their practice, the analysis and solution of which will improve the process of organization of advanced training. The primary data processing was carried out using IBM SPSS Statistics software.
