"The article presents the results of theoretical and methodological research on the need for the formation of professional competencies of graduates of pedagogical educational programs. The authors have developed a model of the methodology for the formation of the source-based competence of future history teachers. Based on the generalization of the available research, the authors formed the concept of «source-based competence» in the context of the educational program, the structural elements of the model, and their content was identified and the evaluation criteria for the effectiveness of the model were determined methods of forming the source-based competence of future history teachers. Historical written sources are the fundamental basis for the study of history in the academic environment and have the extensive potential for the formation of research skills, to argue their judgments and prove them with the help of primary sources, to critically comprehend information flows in modern conditions and on its basis to form their own evaluative and critical position. Systematic use of historical sources in the structure of the training of future history teachers within the framework of the developed methodological model of the formation of source-based competence will improve the qualification level of teachers.
