The article is aimed at defining the possibilities for structural methodology to understand the phenomenon of modern technology. Some principles of postmodernists’ structural research are highlighted. The embodiment of these principles in the analytical discourse is shown, considering the state and development of technical activities and how they allow one to assess and predict future events. These predictions about mechanization, informatization and virtualization of almost all areas of modern society are contemplated pessimistic by some thinkers and optimistic by others. The conducted study showed that the structural methodology is a fairly effective means of philosophical understanding of the phenomena of technical reality. More and more people become involved in technology, and it is generally not perceived as involved in global threats. Instead, the dynamics and the consequences of structural transformations in the technical field are deeply interpreted by philosophers, who formulate their predictions and thus signal the dangers to culture and civilization.

Social experience plays a dominant role in human life as an individual, as a member of society. Obtaining social experience is characterized by spontaneity (assimilation of social experience from the "flow" of life), spontaneity (the work of social instincts inherent in a person), but at the same time it is a purposeful process (through providing a person with a normative experience selected in accordance with the culture of society). Its assimilation takes place in the process of socialization, and fiction is an important means of education of social competence in younger students.

The article deals with tourism and hospitality managers' professional training in Canada. The authors analyse the scientific and pedagogical literature which highlights different aspects of the problem of multicultural component in the system of professional training of tourism and hospitality managers. The research methodology comprises theoretical and applied methods (bibliographical method, analysis and systematisation, content analysis, statistical analysis, synthesis and comparative analysis, mathematical method). The development of tourism and hospitality managers' professional training is outlined and the emergence of the need for its multicultural component formation is specified. The analysis of tourism occupational standards made it possible to distinguish the knowledge, skills and professional values of tourism and hospitality managers. The formation of the multicultural component, the content, objectives, and priorities of multicultural training are based on three main principles of multicultural education: accessibility, equal opportunities, diversity. The article describes the theoretical and applied elements of multicultural component formation as well as basic forms of organisation: the development of special courses, including additional content elements in curricula and academic programmes, the use of innovative forms and methods of training. The proposals for possible ways to adapt Canadian tourism and hospitality managers' professional training experience in Ukraine are developed.
