KIRISH: maktabgacha ta’lim tizimi zamonaviy jamiyatda bolalarning shaxsiy, ijtimoiy va intellektual rivojlanishida muhim o‘rin tutadi. Shu bilan birga, maktabgacha ta’lim tashkilotida faoliyat yuritadigan tarbiyachilarning kasbiy malakasi va ijtimoiy kompetensiyalari bolalarning rivojlanish sifatiga to‘g‘ridan-to‘g‘ri ta’sir ko‘rsatadi. Ijtimoiy kompetensiya – bu shaxsning jamiyat bilan muvaffaqiyatli muloqot qilish qobiliyati, professional vazifalarni samarali bajarish va pedagogik munosabatlarni to‘g‘ri tashkil eta olishdir.

Shu sababli, mazkur tadqiqot maktabgacha ta’lim tashkiloti bo‘ladigan tarbiyachilarning kasbiy rivojlanishida ijtimoiy kompetensiyaning ahamiyatini o‘rganishga qaratilgan. MAQSAD: maktabgacha ta’lim tashkilotida faoliyat ko‘rsatadigan tarbiyachilarning kasbiy rivojlanishida ijtimoiy kompetensiyaning o‘rni va ahamiyatini aniqlash. Mazkur tadqiqot orqali ijtimoiy kompetensiya va kasbiy rivojlanish o‘rtasidagi uzviy bog‘liqlik aniqlanadi, shuningdek, zamonaviy pedagogik usullar yordamida bo‘lajak tarbiyachilarning kasbiy tayyorgarligini samarali oshirish yo‘llari tavsiya etiladi. METODLAR VA MATERIALLAR: tadqiqot jarayonida quyidagi metodlar qo‘llanildi. Analitik metod – mavzuga oid ilmiy adabiyotlarni o‘rganish orqali ijtimoiy kompetensiya va kasbiy rivojlanishning nazariy asoslarini tahlil qilish. So‘rovnoma va intervyu – bo‘lajak tarbiyachilarning ijtimoiy kompetensiya darajasini aniqlash va ularning kasbiy rivojlanishiga ta’sirini o‘rganish. Kuzatuv metod – tarbiyachilarning amaliy faoliyatida ijtimoiy kompetensiya elementlarining namoyon bo‘lishini kuzatish.

NATIJA VA MUHOKAMA: tadqiqot natijalari shuni ko‘rsatdiki: bo‘lajak tarbiyachilarning ijtimoiy kompetensiyasi ularning kasbiy rivojlanishi bilan uzviy bog‘liqdir.O‘zaro muloqot, jamoa bilan ishlash, konfliktlarni hal qilish va pedagogik vazifalarni bajarishdagi samaradorlik yuqori bo‘lgan tarbiyachilarda kasbiy yetuklik ham yuqori darajada namoyon bo‘ladi. Ijtimoiy kompetensiyani rivojlantirish bo‘yicha maxsus treninglar, guruh mashg‘ulotlari va mentorlik faoliyati tarbiyachilarning kasbiy tayyorgarligini sezilarli darajada oshiradi. Shuningdek, muhokama jarayonida ijtimoiy kompetensiya rivojlangan tarbiyachilar bolalarga psixologik qulay muhit yaratish, ularni rag‘batlantirish va tarbiyaviy ishlarni samarali tashkil etish bo‘yicha yaxshiroq natijalarga erishishi aniqlangan. XULOSA: bo‘lajak tarbiyachilarning kasbiy rivojlanishida ijtimoiy kompetensiyaning ahamiyati beqiyosdir. Tarbiyachilarda ijtimoiy kompetensiyani rivojlantirish orqali nafaqat ularning kasbiy malakasi oshadi, balki bolalarning tarbiyasi va ta’lim sifati ham yaxshilanadi. Shu bois, maktabgacha ta’lim muassasalarida bo‘lajak tarbiyachilarning ijtimoiy kompetensiyasini shakllantirishga alohida e’tibor qaratish tavsiya etiladi.
INTRODUCTION: the preschool education system plays a crucial role in the personal, social, and intellectual development of children in modern society. At the same time, the professional qualifications and social competence of educators in preschool institutions directly influence the quality of child development. Social competence is the ability of an individual to effectively interact with society, perform professional tasks efficiently, and organize pedagogical relationships appropriately. The development of social competence in educators contributes to their professional maturity, work efficiency, and the ability to provide high-quality education to children. Therefore, this study is aimed at exploring the significance of social competence in the professional development of future preschool educators. AIM: the main aim of the study is to determine the role and significance of social competence in the professional development of future preschool educators. The study identifies the close relationship between social competence and professional development, and also proposes ways to effectively enhance the professional preparedness of future educators using modern pedagogical methods. METHODS AND MATERIALS: the following methods were applied during the study. Analytical method — reviewing scientific literature on social competence and professional development to analyze theoretical foundations. Questionnaires and interviews — assessing the level of social competence of future educators and examining its impact on their professional development. Observation method — monitoring the manifestation of social competence elements in the practical activities of educators. The study materials included the activities of students entering preschool education institutions and future educators. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: the results of the study indicated that the social competence of future educators is closely linked to their professional development. Educators who demonstrate high effectiveness in communication, teamwork, conflict resolution, and performing pedagogical tasks show a high level of professional maturity. Special training sessions, group activities, and mentoring significantly improve the professional preparedness of educators. Furthermore, the discussion revealed that educators with well-developed social competence create a psychologically comfortable environment for children, motivate them, and organize educational activities more effectively. CONCLUSION: social competence plays a crucial role in the professional development of future educators. Developing social competence not only enhances the professional qualifications of educators but also improves the upbringing and educational quality of children. Therefore, preschool institutions should pay special attention to the development of social competence in future educators.
