Abstract: In the era of rapid technological development in universities, it is advisable to switch to client-project-oriented education. It allows the university to embark on a commercial path of self-sufficiency. Client-project-oriented education allows universities to effectively form partnerships with business and industry to train competent specialists for the implementation of projects. For project production management, a technological competence platform is created for the training of project implementation specialists. According to the required competencies of the project participants, the university prepares training courses for specialists in the acquisition of skills on the technological competence platform. On the technological platform of competencies, students with professional knowledge acquire the necessary professional skills and the ability to work in the project team. They become competent specialists who are ready to participate in the implementation of the project. The university becomes an institution of educational development. Universities form an educational core with a transition to an individual trajectory of education and research. Students receive knowledge and skills to participate in a specific project. The principle of learning mobility is implemented by filling and changing the educational process in accordance with the requests of the students themselves. The principle of learning mobility makes it possible to respond flexibly to the needs of individual companies and subjects of the federation. This principle is manifested through the constant transformation of the functional and organizational structure, allowing universities to adapt to the training of personnel on rapidly changing technologies of the innovative industry and industry. In the era of rapid career change, client-project-oriented education is especially relevant.

Abstract: The development of scientific research skills has always been an aim in the formation of English as a foreign language (EFL) teaching professionals. In this respect, the determination of dimensions and indicators, with emphasis on the latter, has become a key step in the process of research. This work aims at providing students-researchers and advisors with the conceptualization of essential categories, some recommendations and examples of dimensions and indicators derived from the authors’ professional experience, the review of specialized bibliography on the topic and the analysis of the inventory of diploma papers (pieces of research presented as a requirement to complete undergraduate programs of study) and Master’s degree theses from Enrique José Varona University of Pedagogical Sciences and the University of Havana. The dimensions and indicators discussed cover two basic areas in EFL education research, namely levels of discourse construction (pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar, discourse and text studies) and types of verbal activity (speaking, writing, listening and reading). The article responds to a task from the research project: The enhancement of English teaching in Primary, High and Higher Educations, carried out at the Faculty of Education in Foreign Languages from Enrique José Varona University of Pedagogical Sciences, which is part of the National Program: The Cuban Educational System: perspective of development.
