Introduction
In the modern landscape of higher education, the concept of
“Global Partnership in Education” has become a pivotal factor
in enhancing not only the prestige of universities but also their
economic impact. The rapidly developing global economy,
characterized by technological progress and information-driven
societies, necessitates a reassessment of traditional educational
models. There is a need to delve into this paradigm shift, exploring
how international collaboration in the educational sector is shaping
the future of universities and economies worldwide.
At the core of this discussion is the acknowledgment that the
quality of education, once considered a national issue, has crossed
borders to become a global imperative. The transformation of
educational institutions through global partnerships is not just a
trend but a necessity in an interconnected world where knowledge,
skills, and innovation are the primary currency. These partnerships

and development. The synergistic effect of enhanced educational
quality and international cooperation is a key focus, highlighting
how these elements collectively contribute to the advancement of
universities on the global stage [1,2].
In today’s rapidly evolving technological landscape, the quality
and accessibility of education are essential modern prerequisites.
The competitive edge in this environment is increasingly reliant
on the caliber of human resources and the investment in human
capital. The degree of education and the volume of continually
updated knowledge held by a society, as highlighted by Trondal, et
al., [3], play a pivotal role in determining a nation’s competitiveness.
This is particularly evident in the context of the globalizing trend in
higher education.
As Altbach, et al., [4] point out, the wealth of natural resources

advantage in the contemporary information society. The real
solution lies in assimilating into the worldwide knowledge
network, where the benchmark for the quality of higher education
institutions is their alignment with the international curriculum
standards.

A Zlenko, et al., [8].
Quality in the educational context is perceived as a dynamic
concept, shaped by the varying priorities of a diverse group of
stakeholders. This group includes students, the academic and
teaching staff, technical and administrative personnel, parents,
prospective employers, funders, stakeholders, and more, as
Ovsyannikov, et al., [9].
In the current fast-paced evolution of science and education,
where knowledge rapidly becomes outdated, the role of the
educator has shifted. Instead of traditional teaching, educators now
serve more as facilitators and coordinators of student learning,
effectively taking on the role of a tutor. Their primary responsibility,
as outlined by N Martynovych, et al., [10], lies in selecting appropriate
content, employing the most effective teaching methods and tools,
all while aligning with the curriculum and educational goals.

The objective of this article, in alignment with the research
theme “Global Partnership in Education as an Enhancement of
University Prestige and Economic Impact,” is to elucidate the
real-world aspects of advancing internationalization in vocational
education in Ukraine, drawing on the experiences of Berdyansk
State Pedagogical University. Additionally, it seeks to shed light
on how the quality of education can be enhanced by examining
the practices at the Benemérita Autonomous University of Puebla
(BUAP, Mexico), and to explore the various avenues through which

Poland offers numerous international programs that provide
quality education at a much lower cost compared to renowned
institutions like Oxford, Harvard, or Sorbonne, which is seen as
a pathway to a successful career. In Poland, international study
technologies enable students to spend part of their study period
abroad under dual degree programs, enhancing academic mobility.
These opportunities attract students not only from Ukraine and
former CIS countries but also from Scandinavia, Western Europe,
the USA, and even the Emirates, drawn by the affordable tuition fees
and high-quality education at Polish universities.
The internationalization of higher education, as pointed
out by Antoniuk [12], and Havrilenko, et al., [13], is linked to
economic strengthening, demanding highly skilled professionals.
Furthermore, the experience of other countries in enhancing higher
education quality is vital. As Kravchenko, et al., [14], and Krivilova,
et al., [15] note, the primary goal of education is not just knowledge
transfer but also to equip future specialists with the ability to
independently analyse and make strategic decisions in a complex
and competitive business environment. Economies worldwide
require competent professionals who can quickly analyse complex
situations and make optimal decisions, considering the risks

education institutions, publishing academic articles by BSPU
faculty and students in international journals and featuring works
by foreign researchers in BSPU publications, pursuing grant
activities; and inviting foreign experts as well as arranging overseas
internships for BSPU faculty.
These concerted efforts in international integration of higher
education into the European educational services market have
borne fruit. According to Scopus indicators, BSPU’s ranking among
Ukrainian universities improved from 92nd in 2018 to 110th in
2022, as per the Webometrics Ranking of World Universities-2022
[19], the ranking has increased by 30 points compared to 2022. It is
a quality indicator of higher education of Ukraine.
The University’s success in international cooperation is
attributed to a series of well-planned and organized activities. These
include coordinating the University’s collaboration with educational
institutions, organizations, and establishments abroad under
existing cooperation agreements; developing and harmonizing
draft agreements with international partners; managing the efforts
of University departments and divisions within the framework
of international partnerships; offering consultancy and support
in preparing documentation for the overseas travel of students
and staff for studies and internships; organizing educational and
training internships for University students abroad; arranging
schedules and meetings for visiting foreign experts, delegations,
and students; and overseeing the programming and hospitality
for these foreign delegations. All these concerted efforts have

Such events help lecturers not only bring something new
to their work, but also reveal the additional opportunities for
future specialists for their training. The collaboration has led
to the creation of new competitive products sought after in the
global market, positioning our countries favourably within the
international economic framework. Central to this achievement
is higher education, serving as a reservoir of highly skilled
professionals and a hub for innovative technologies and products.

which was carried out through joint teaching of practical classes,
seminars to improve language and methodological competence, the
use of the latest information technologies, and the development of

Peace Corps volunteers participated in the development of
additional teaching materials and encouraged openness to new
ideas and changes at the university. Students of many specialties had
the opportunity to improve their foreign language communication
competence, improve their English communication skills, learn
about the latest teaching methods, exchange knowledge about the
culture and traditions of Ukraine and the United States, and get
acquainted with the peculiarities of studying and living in the United
States. Senior Lecturer of the Department of Foreign Languages
Irina Nagai has had the experience of co-working with Peace
Corp volunteer teachers. They taught Business Communications
to BSPU students majoring in Management and Management of
Foreign Economic Activity. This contributed to the formation of
the personal qualities necessary for future professional activity, as
well as knowledge, skills and abilities, which ensured the quality
performance of professional duties in the chosen specialty [21].

In addition, thanks to the cooperation agreements between
BSPU and Turkish travel agencies such as Tui and Kemer Tours,
it became possible to organize summer internships and in-job
practice in Turkish hotels and tourist complexes for BSPU students.
The experience of organizing such internships has shown that
students who have completed them are more competitive and in
demand on the labour market. BSPU graduates successfully apply
the knowledge gained at the university, holding leading positions in
the tourism business and in large travel companies in Ukraine, the
USA, Canada, Italy and Turkey.
Additionally, the VIII International Seminar “Quality
Management in Education,” conducted in Berlin on 11 February
2020, focused on such topics as quality assurance and development
in higher education, accreditation systems, and approaches to
quality management in an international setting. Such international

with leading global research centres [24]. This synergy is key to
bolstering the countries’ international competitiveness.
Innovative activities of higher education institutions are
based on the integration of science and education. Despite these
advantages, and even with notable positive reforms in recent years,
issues like political and economic instability, corruption, and the
subpar quality of institutions and governance still hinder Ukraine’s
capacity to foster an environment conducive to widespread
experimentation with ideas and technologies. Such an environment
is essential for cultivating activities that underpin a robust, diverse,
and well-integrated foundation for the country’s long-term
sustainable economic development [25].
Despite challenges, many Ukrainian cities have successfully

Modern curriculum designs now include inputs from employers,
ensuring the inclusion of pertinent elective courses [26,27]. A
key focus is also on nurturing entrepreneurial talents among
students. This is evidenced by courses such as “Entrepreneurship
and “Innovative Entrepreneurship,” which are available to
not just economics students but also those studying different
subjects. Students are actively involved in research initiatives, the
development of projects, and participating in contests related to
start-up business ventures [28-31]. Moreover, employers, mostly
university graduates, invite students for internships. This is done

Conclusions
Participation in diverse international programs and projects is
a key factor in ensuring the quality of educational services, aligning
them with the global ISO series standards, and adhering to the
Total Quality Management (TQM) system in educational service
management.
Addressing the disconnect between business research and
practical application is critical in the synergy of science, education,
and industry. The need for lifelong knowledge updating, as
demanded by the current context, is met through innovative
learning methodologies incorporating information technology,

The article focuses on the problem of development of the lifelong learning skills of senior students in secondary school of general education. The model of interaction between the subjects of learning in the Trello project management system is developed. The foreign literature learning environment in the Trello system is developed. The experience of using the Trello project management system in the process of teaching foreign literature in 10th and 11th grades is described. It has been found that according to the lifelong learning approach a person has to possess skills: goal setting, self-regulation, motivation, time management, self-directed learning, collaboration skills, and self-development. It was pointed out that there are common approaches to project management and educational process management. The use of online systems for collaborative work in the educational process in the secondary school of general education is suggested. Online systems for teamwork that support Kanban methodologies for project management have been analyzed. To confirm the effectiveness of the implementation of the Trello project management system as a tool for the development of lifelong learning skills of senior students, an experiment was conducted: criteria, indicators, levels, and the state of formation of lifelong learning skills of senior students were determined; statistical analysis of the results of the experiment was carried out. The effectiveness of the implementation of the Trello project management system as a tool of the formation of the lifelong learning skills of senior students has been experimentally proven. The study can be applied in educational institutions interested in using agile methods in teaching.

In recent years the number of Ukrainian citizens living in Poland has constantly been increasing. Analyzing this community, it was agreed that Ukrainians can be divided into three groups, while for the authors of the present study two groups will be of interest, i.e. persons legally working in Poland, persons studying in Poland. The goal of the present study is a presentation of an overview of the legal and economic situation and results of sociological research regarding the quality of life of the above-mentioned groups. In the study a sociological method of researching documents was used, meaning material and symbolic man-made creations, as sources in obtaining information during the research process. Moreover, survey research as well as in-depth interviews regarding the quality of life of Ukrainian citizens in selected cities of the Silesian province, were conducted.
Article
The proposed article is devoted to considering the problems of organizing business communications in higher educational institutions majoring in Economics and Management, as well as the need to improve business communication skills of young professionals. It is well known that the viability of a business directly depends on the ability of managers working in the field of International Business to establish and maintain business contacts with staff, consumers, and business partners. Research in the city of Berdyansk and the Berdyansk region showed that young professionals faced the problem of organizing business communications (BC) when doing business with foreign partners. In this regard, it is very important to increase the level of efficiency of mastering BC skills, which determines the relevance of this work. Knowledge and skills in the field of BC can become a decisive factor for successful business development. Being aware of the priority of Western BC traditions, due to their linguistic and economic position in the world, it should be remembered that Ukraine, like other Eastern European states, has its own communicative style, generously filled with national character and new economic realities. In addition, when preparing future specialists in the field of Foreign Economic Affairs, in the field of International Business, it is necessary to use new, interactive, professionally oriented methods along with traditional training methods. It should be noted that the knowledge acquired by students in the specialty is very important, but does not guarantee successful business development. While business communication skills are crucial. There were developed recommendations to increase the efficiency of business communication skills of future specialists in the field of Foreign Economic Affairs and International Tourism. We believe that it is of great necessity to include into the existing English language study programs special courses that provide an opportunity not only to expand students’ outlook in the field of Philology and Linguistics, to realize their interest in the subject, but also most to master foreign language professional communicative competence, which allows them to use a foreign language as means of business communication to solve specific problems in situations of business interaction. Key words: Business Communications, communicative style, corporate communication, communicative competence.

Institutional change entails balancing multiple competing, inconsistent and often loosely coupled demands and concerns, often simultaneously. This article poses the following question: How are patterns of internationalisation of research among academic staff at universities balancing two worlds of change, that is, governance by the university leadership (H1) as well as initiatives by the faculty members (H2)? This article argues and empirically substantiates that internationalisation of academic staff tend to be a balancing-act between these two worlds of change. Whereas most universities increasingly formulate strategies for internationalisation (H1), the research behaviour of faculty members seems weakly associated with such strategies (H2). Variation in international research collaboration among permanent academic staff at universities is best explained by their positional level (H2). This article also suggests key conditions under which internationalisation of research results from collaboratory strategies between university leadership and faculty members.
