In the industry educational programs in higher education institutions (universities), in particular, programs aimed at training managers for oil and gas companies, the basic training of students in the areas of Economics and Management usually is combined with special disciplines, including cycles of technological, economic and managerial disciplines, reflecting the specifics of the fuel and energy complex. At the same time, graduates traditionally experience difficulties with the use of fundamental theoretical knowledge in practice to solve professional problems. In this regard, management training for oil and gas companies should be based on the formation of graduates of industry educational programs of universities on professional competencies that meet the requirements of employers, formulated in professional standards and job descriptions. An example of the formation of graduates of the master's educational program «Fuel and energy business» at the State University of Management (Moscow) competence is “Able to determine the priority directions of development of trading business of energy companies, identify, analyze risks, develop a set of measures to minimize them”. During the formation of this competence, the labor functions, knowledge and skills of two professional standards “Trader of oil and gas market" and "Business analyst” were used. The model of formation of professional competence on the basis of labor functions of professional standards is offered.
The quality of professional training of graduates of industry educational programs of universities and the opportunity for oil and gas companies in the future to form a reserve of managerial personnel from graduates with the necessary competencies, largely depends on the quality of industry professional standards and the active participation of potential employers in the development of educational programs of universities.
