RESULTS OF EXPERT EVALUATION OF THE SYSTEM OF DESIGNING CONSULTING ACTIVITIES IN A HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTION UNDER CONDITIONS OF UNCERTAINTY

Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis of the results of the process of expert evaluation of the system of designing consulting activities in a higher education institution under conditions of uncertainty. The relevance of the study in the context of uncertainty and Ukraine's European integration aspirations to obtain the status of a candidate for membership in the European Union is stated. To achieve the purpose of the study, the method of expert evaluation was applied, which determines the directions of development of the consulting activity design system. The analysis of scientific research made it possible to understand the nature of the scientific discourse on this issue. The expert activity of the expert groups of higher education institutions involved in the study of the research problem is analysed. The significance of the methods is revealed and the shortcomings of the expert evaluation procedure for the design of consulting activities in higher education institutions under conditions of uncertainty are worked out. A conceptual model has been developed to evaluate the consulting activity design system. The consolidated results of the weight of the factors of the qualimetric submodel of consulting activity management in higher education institutions based on multi-level support for educational entities showed the equivalence of the priorities set by the expert groups. It is concluded that the procedures and results of the expert evaluation indicate the feasibility of introducing a system for designing consulting activities in the practice of higher education institutions. The need for a strategic vision of the development of higher education institutions and the need to implement the author's system of designing consulting activities, which is implemented at the level of management personnel of the institution, requires changes in the organisational structures of the institution, training of human resources, development of information support for the consulting process, which should be implemented simultaneously at all three management levels, are determined. The article identifies the prospects for further research, which consists in the practical implementation of the results of expert evaluation by developing scientific and methodological recommendations for designing consulting activities in an educational institution under conditions of uncertainty.
