In this article it is noted that the paradigm of a foreign language as a target acquisition becomes a means of achieving professional competence. The education system in our country is systematically reformed – requirements for learning outcomes change, training programs improve, the experience of foreign universities is adopted; there is also a convergence of domestic and foreign universities according to the Bologna Process.
