Abstract
The article describes the essence of the management of the formation of professional competence in students (competence-oriented management) as an activity realized by a set of directed interventions of the collective management subject (administration, faculty, and students) into those factors of the educational setting that are conducive to the development of students’ readiness to fulfill professional tasks and purposefully develop their personality under rapidly changing conditions.
In the context of the competence-oriented education, this type of management creates an educational process that is structured as a system, open, and dynamic. Its distinguishing feature is the integration and systematization of the management interventions of all levels in the process of the formation of the professional competence of prospective higher education faculty.
The author analyzes the distinguishing features of the management interventions realized under competency-based approach to the training of Master’s students enrolled in Higher Education Pedagogy program at the University of Educational Management affiliated to the National Academy of Pedagogical Sciences of Ukraine.

Key words: competency-based approach, professional competence, competence-oriented management.
