摘要：Changes in the social and economic life of society, an understanding of the forces currently at play require changes in the fields of education philosophy, education technology education curriculum and design for education at all levels. There is a need in transformation and redefining curriculum agendas for educational institutions related to the training of qualified, competitive, professionally mobile staff, who are ready to design and implement the activities of coal mining enterprises. Kemerovo region is one of the most important regions of the country for coal mining and metallurgy development, which almost completely supplies the entire country with coal. Training of personnel for the coal mining industry assumes increasing importance and orientation necessary for the future of the country. Our research has shown that the structure of young people’s self-awareness, their personal life and professional intentions are changing. It is necessary that young people should be ready for making independent decisions in choosing a profession required in the region. The socio- economic development of the region is characterized by the emergence of various innovations in the system of vocational, occupational and human resources management training for the coal mining industry. Based on the results of our research we consider it necessary to create clusters aimed at integrating and concentrating the activities of educational organizations, scientific institutions, supplementary education organizations, industrial enterprises that are located on the same territory, in the same region, in order to prepare qualified personnel for the coal mining industry of the region.
