Abstract
Today, there is ample evidence that the priority task of education professionals is to preserve and strengthen the mental health of children, taking into account different needs and opportunities. In accordance with the modern qualification needs in higher educational institutions, in order to prepare targeted educational psychologists, it is necessary to organize a high level of practice for students who form professional competence. They need to effectively perform labor functions in their future professional activities. As the preliminary analysis shows, there are many ideas in this area in the world. These ideas are aimed at addressing these priorities. This article discusses the conditions for the development of professional competencies of future pedagogue-psychologists in the context of globalization. Particular attention is paid to the current status of pedagogue-psychologists working at schools and the level of readiness of Kazakhstani universities in the preparation of future pedagogue-psychologists. The experience of foreign universities in this direction is also described, conducting a comparative analysis of the achievements in the field of practical psychology in our country and foreign countries.
