The current state of the development of education in Ukraine in the field of information technology is analyzed. The ways of improving the efficiency of the educational training in the field of information technology are suggested.
The state-of-the art education system should be in time for the knowledge-intensive technologies, that are developing with a high pace and be as mobile and effective as possible. The development of science-intensive technologies is developing with a tremendous pace, so the knowledge obtained in the university is quickly becoming obsolete, therefore the modernization of equipment should go in synchronism...
Development of Cloud Computing it is essential to develop the awareness of usage. Crowd of people use any day, on any device, from anywhere. It is necessary to handle those wide scale of users who want to keep their data in safe, and preserve their identity in the cyberspace. Cloud Computing Service Providers have to evolve their platforms as simply as it can be — but it should be given more responsibility...
The evaluation of educational approaches is frequently challenging as it involves humans and requires the consideration of several angles depending on the educational objectives. On occasions, these objectives involve academic and industrial environments, thus implying additional challenges. Education in Global Software Development (GSD) has recently became important for companies that offer GSD training...
Education enables the realization of skills, knowledge, attitudes and values that each individual requires to fulfill their work and social goals. It increases economic competitiveness by ensuring the necessary qualities of human resources. One of the priorities of the educational system in the upcoming period should be the assessment of skills and abilities the economy needs as well as their long...
This paper introduces activities of an advanced measurement and control engineer. The activities range from basic to extended ones. The basic ones correspond to activities as a leading engineer of measurement and control in a company, which are basically common to all corresponding engineers. On the other hand, the extended activities would vary from engineer to engineer. So, as an example, the author's...
Starting in 1987 with 6 students the Postgraduate Programme Renewable Energy (PPRE) has developed to an accredited master program with almost 400 actively networking alumni from more than 80 countries. Fields of study are wind energy, solar electric and solar thermal, energy meteorology, hydropower, storage technology, biomass and economics of Renewable Energy. The Programme1 aims at engineers and...
In recent years, the evolution of Global Software Development (GSD) has grown both rapidly and significantly, and although the efficiency of this new type of development has been proven, some challenging issues must still be confronted. Of all these, our research line is focused on designing the specific training that members of virtual teams must receive. Universities and companies therefore need...

Many educational theorists stress the importance of social aspects for effective learning. In “communities of practice” for instance, groups of practitioners might learn from each other and eventually constitute a shared identity. Web 2.0 provides an ideal opportunity for this. An example of such a Web 2.0 information technology is slidecasting, which can be described as podcasting by synchronizing...
Although the model of engineering education based on industry/university collaboration is regarded as an effective way to foster innovative talents, there are still many difficulties in the implementation of mass computer engineering education for undergraduates because of limited educational resources. Taking the example of the theories and practice of the Mainframe Education Center of Huazhong University...
We present a functional and useful case in the province of Toledo, in a credit union: Caja Rural de Toledo and his Foundation on the cooperative education and other segments of the population and society to improve the level of Social Economy through a project based on the theories that are posted on e-learning, and the features it has to have to be useful depending on the range of training that have...
As economic and technological globalization continuously unfolds a new international division of labor for engineers start to emerge. Engineers in the OECD-countries increasingly have to participate in rejuvenating incumbents located in the OECD countries, hence have to become involved in intrapreneurship. This paper sheds light on two questions: what constitutes the core of an education in engineering...
Project management is the most common method of implementation of non-routine operations or new plan in the corporate organization from organizing small meetings, to large product development in the investment market, to complete the task or project with the scheduled time and resources.

This paper aims to deal with the issues of art and design education in the universities of economics and law. Through the reorientation of art and design education, authors try to change the way of thinking and establish the teach, research and creation three-in-one education system which will be better attuned to each university's characteristics and will combine the junior college, undergraduate...
User passwords are the gateway to an organization's assets. When users are the agents selecting passwords, they are the key component to improving passwords. Users must be persuaded to select passwords difficult to compromise. User behavior can be influenced by information security training. This study examines the use of cognitive load theory to design the information security training on password...
Training has been used from times immemorial both on and off the job to enable participants (employees) to obtain ongoing skills. Training methods have been evolving and particularly so in the last 10 years. In scenarios where the participants do not have access to live classroom sessions or to get maximum content within limited time, e-learning is one of the notable strategies that is used across...
