The article covers the problem of searching for psychological reserves for finding managerial mechanisms to accelerate the transformation of the national university educational system. There is a decrease in the population's assessment of ongoing reforms, which is partially caused by the lack of teachers’ activity to work out an adequate concept of development, the loss of the very meaning of university education, its substitution by different values, and, most importantly, the lag of universities in the transfer of modern knowledge. It is obvious that all developed educational technologies are aimed at accelerating of one of the slowest learning processes in education. One of the ways to reduce learning time is related to the digitalization of education, which theoretically tends to zero thanks to the introduction of microchips that connect the human mind with the computer. However, there are technologies of knowledge transfer that do not form professionals, who, in addition, must have certain competencies, experience and personal qualities. In the context of searching for effective ways to develop pedagogical education, attention is drawn to the study of the results of increasing its species diversity, as well as the integration of its main types - formal, non-formal and informal. Besides, it is important to change the position of the student outlining ways to prepare the educational elite, the main difference, the specificity of which is its universality. This can be achieved by creating a new geographically closed space, a new innovative environment, the beginnings of which began to manifest in the situation of the pandemic: an intellectual civilization aimed to provide conditions for the symbiosis of population, scientific knowledge and production. Further development of pedagogical knowledge in a high-tech society is impossible without integration with science. The growth of the scientific component, the active introduction of scientific methods forms the ability to foresee and predict the future, thereby turning pedagogical universities into an innovative information and educational environment.
