The role of motivation for self-education in the training of public catering workers

Abstract

The process of training specialists for the catering sector requires the formation of independent work skills for future employees to improve their professional competencies. In modern conditions, when acquired knowledge quickly becomes obsolete, there is no way to teach a student for his whole life. Therefore, there is a need to teach students the methods of independent education. A modern graduate of an educational institution should have the skills to independently solve various professional practical problems, be able to defend his point of view, engage in self-education throughout his professional activity. Independent work of students on a systematic basis allows them to form motivation to acquire new knowledge. A person 's motivation is based on prerequisites, stimuli and motives that motivate him to some kind of activity . Motives influence the assessment of the situation and decision-making. In order to form students' skills of independent educational activity, it is necessary to improve students' skills of self-assessment, rational organization of work, the ability to plan the time allocated for training. A modern graduate of an educational institution will be in demand in the labor market, provided that he will not only have a certain amount of knowledge, but also constantly replenish it, and for this the degree of motivation of graduates to self-education is of paramount importance. Unemployment primarily concerns low - skilled personnel . In the process of training specialists in the field of catering, students should be convinced that the growth of their knowledge, as well as constant independent work aimed at improving professional competencies in the future can guarantee stable work and a high level of demand in the labor market.
