The article assesses the outcomes of digitization on higher education in Kazakhstan. Given current trends, there is a need to establish a dedicated focus on the ongoing professional growth of educators. A crucial measure in this regard involves shifting from disjointed learning approaches to implementing a cohesive system for the continuous professional development of teaching staff. It is crucial to highlight that in accordance with the Development Concept of Higher Education and Science in the Republic of Kazakhstan the duration of an individual's active economic engagement has extended from 35-40 years to 50-60 years. This shift underscores the growing necessity for continuous learning throughout one's life and underscores the significance of non-formal education. The educator plays a pivotal role in influencing the educational landscape and significantly contributes to the outcomes of socio-economic changes in Kazakhstan. In the current era of socio-economic and digital transformations the teacher's proficiency has emerged as a crucial element that directly influences the quality of students' education. The Ministry of Digital Development, Innovation, and Aerospace Industry of Kazakhstan has reported a yearly requirement for approximately 30,000 additional IT professionals. Consequently, the focus is on enhancing the methodological expertise of IT discipline educators, recognizing their pivotal role in influencing the quality of education and student achievements. Information systems aimed at enhancing this competence are emerging as a crucial element in elevating the overall effectiveness of education. The article presents the rationale for the need to create a single space for additional professional education of teachers of IT disciplines. It is considered as an effective mechanism for the implementation of the state educational policy and innovation strategy in the field of education. The aim of this initiative is to ensure that the human resource is ready to successfully achieve the country's strategic goals in the context of digitalization processes. The article focuses on the development of a structural model of an information system aimed at improving the methodological competence of teachers of IT disciplines using the principles of continuing education. Based on a conceptual model with microservices subsystems, this methodology represents a comprehensive approach to the development of the competence of teachers of IT disciplines, integrating technological and methodological aspects. The development of a method for combining data in order to prevent duplication of records in the database of the information system is also considered. Methods of estimating the degree of similarity based on the types of attributes are proposed. The article extensively delineates the models, architecture, and components constituting the software implementation of the envisioned information system. It scrutinizes the accessibility of the employed data sources and formulates conclusions regarding the future potential for advancing the subject matter.
