Abstract

This article describes the impact of digital economy on changes in economic environmental and social spheres. This leads to changes in educational environment considering the requirements for the development of digitalization in agro – industrial complex (AIC). In this regard, the conditions of education and training of engineering personnel with competencies for working in AIC digital economy are also changing.

The authors studied influence of the main trends in the development of digital fluency and digital competencies on the formation of engineering human resources in AIC. Particular attention was paid to the analysis of the development of the human resources component of the digital economy of AIC in this region, in particular, according to the parameters of “Personnel for Digital Economy” project in the Chelyabinsk Region, it is planned to increase the share of population with digital fluency and key competencies in digital economy from 27% in 2019 to 80% by year 2024.

Human resources are the most important strategic resource for the development of AIC digitalization. At the same time, labor requirements are constantly growing. Formation of digital competencies should be the goal of engineers, and the development of a mechanism to achieve this goal is the main task of state personnel policy, science and education. Consequently, the role of education in training of engineering personnel for working in agriculture taking into account the requirements for AIC digitalization development is becoming more and more relevant.
