Методи дослідження: аналіз наукової літератури; узагальнення й інтерпретація отриманих теоретичних і емпіричних даних; проєктування методики розвитку фахової компетентності. Розкрито основні етапи методики: ціннісно-мотиваційний; теоретичний; практичний; твoрчo-рефлексивний. Запропонована методика сприятиме поглиблення та систематизації теоретичних знань, розвитку практичних навичок, умінь і здібностей.The aim of the article is to substantiate theoretically the authors’ methodology for developing professional competence of the heads of physical training and sports of military units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the system of postgraduate education (hereinafter - HPTSMU) in the system of postgraduate education.
