Improvement of professional qualifications as means of increasing the level of professional competences of members of the civil service corps The author of the present article broadly analyzes the principles of improving professional qualifications by members of the civil service corps, including both the obligation to develop professional knowledge as well as other factors affecting the level of professional competence of corps members, such as the requirement to be qualified to hold a specific position and to serve a preparatory service. In particular, the study indicates requirements for establishing obligation to develop professional knowledge as one of the main duties of members of the civil service corps, introduces its legal nature and, separate from the principles provided for under the Labor Code, rules for its implementation through the absolute obligation of a corps member to participate in the civil service training system. The author also emphasizes the non-exhaustive nature of the regulation provided for by the Civil Service Act and points to the possibility of improving professional qualifications by members of the civil service corps, on the basis of the provisions of the Labor Code, at the initiative of the employer or with his consent.
