In ensuring the quality of educational activities, great importance is attached to the practical training of students. A graduate who has a hands-on experience, more adapted to future work, can better evaluate professional tasks. The motivation for practice is not only to enable students to consolidate the theoretical knowledge and competencies gained at the university, but also to overcome the psychological barrier of entry into the work team, able to feel in it easily, without fear.
For the first time, training on the dual form of training at NUFT was started at the Department of Technology of Meat and Meat Products from 2017-2018 academic year. The dual form of education involves a combination of classroom learning with practice in the production environment to consolidate the theoretical knowledge gained during university studies. At the initiative of the leadership of the Ternopil Meat-Processing Plant with the University, an agreement was signed on the training of specialists of high qualification for the needs of the meat processing industry of Ukraine. This project covers three important components for self-realization of a successful person: learning - work - experience. In this form of education a young specialist institution is being prepared by the educational institution together with the enterprise. This form of education is timely and progressive, because of the requirements of modernity, because the students are already employed.
