In the context of digital transformation, one of the urgent problems is the research of modern approaches to assessing the competencies of project managers necessary for the effective work of project teams. In this regard, the goal of the scientific article is to identify key competencies of project managers based on methods of content analysis of educational programs of higher education institutions in the Republic of Kazakhstan and the FuzzyAnalytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) method to substantiate their weight coefficients. The results of the content analysis showed that current educational programs for training project managers lack professional, digital, communicative, and personal competencies critical for teamwork during project implementation. The absence of these competencies leads to a decrease in the efficiency of project activities and limits the readiness of graduates for the practical implementation of projects, as educational programs are often oriented predominantly towards theoretical preparation with an insufficient level of practical focus. The proposed FAHP model evaluates project manager competence according to indicators such as skill development, teamwork ability, formation of communicative and leadership qualities, as well as the ability to integrate digital innovations into the educational process. This model will allow universities to adjust educational programs taking into account practical requests in the field of training highly qualified project management specialists. Furthermore, domestic universities should transition to a competency-based training model and bring academic practice into compliance with international quality assurance standards. As a result, an effective structure of project management manager competencies will be formed, playing a key role in the employment of graduates and their adaptation in a professional project environment.
