The article is devoted to the problem of introducing digital technologies into the educational process of the university. Today the digitalization of education is becoming one of the priority areas for the development of the Russian system of all levels of education, which is explained by a number of reasons: universal informatization requires the training of a specialist who meets the requirements of modern society, where digital education becomes a means of obtaining knowledge, skills; wide opportunities for using digital education in the practice of organizing the educational process; unhindered access to various information educational resources and platforms, etc. All of them enhance the possibility of training a specialist who can work with information, which is one of the requirements of the Federal State Educational Standard. Thus this technology requires special knowledge and information culture from both the teacher and the students. Digital education has given a big impetus to the development of the system of continuing professional education in general, to the development of distance learning technologies widely used in the practice of training specialists, as well as to increasing the share of student independent work. So the use of various elements of digital education makes it possible to expand the opportunities for students to master their future profession and become a highly demanded specialist in the labor market.
