Advanced training can be carried out in the direction of support of language and speech skills; preparation for the international exam and/or mastering the format of the international exam in order to prepare students for these exams; development of methodological and pedagogical competence; acquaintance with new documents (standards, regulations, rules, etc.) and innovations. The modern Internet resources which allow to solve various problems for a professional level increase of foreign language teachers are allocated. It should be noted that knowledge of a foreign language opens up opportunities for professionals in various fields. Distinctive features of the adult education format in the context of advanced training at a higher education institution are: openness (access to courses is provided via the Internet); multimedia (video, audio materials and other technological solutions are widely used in the courses); interactivity (active interaction of participants in the educational process with each other through participation in forums and chats); free or conditionally free training (most often the training materials are publicly available, but the receipt of documents is carried out for a fee); leading institutions of higher education are engaged in the development of courses.
