This article examines the competency model of a graduate, which is based on the individual`s personal qualities and their readiness to apply the acquired knowledge, skills, and abilities. This article examines the competency model of a graduate, which is based on the subject’s personal qualities, his adaptability and willingness to apply acquired knowledge, skills and abilities in changing sociocultural conditions. The aim of this work is to identify the competencies that a graduate of a pedagogical university should possess, based on a content analysis of the regulatory documents of the Republic of Kazakhstan. These are the “State Compulsory Standard of Higher Education” and the “Teacher” Professional Standard”. It has been found that the SCSHE defines a set of general cultural, research, and communicative competencies. Professional competencies are formulated in the most general form without reference to the specific professional activity of a university graduate. The detailed description of graduate`s professional competencies of pedagogical universities should be based on the “Teacher” Professional Standard. Thus, a comprehensive and effective competency model of a teacher can only be developed by taking into account both the SCSHE and the “Teacher” Professional Standard.
