The main means of implementing information and communication technologies in education are the so-called creative technologies - computer graphics, hypertext, electronic textbooks, GIS - technology, virtual reality, computer networks. The use of information and communication technologies in the process of training future professionals has a number of advantages - the ability to control the pace of educational activities, choose the level of complexity of tasks, the ability to clearly demonstrate certain phenomena and others. Along with the positive aspects of computerization of training of young professionals, there are negative ones, the main of which are disregard for the requirements and motives of personal activities of students, the inability to perform the educational function of control, the difficulty of determining the depth of students' knowledge. Therefore, it is recommended to find the optimal ratio in the use of computer and traditional technologies in higher education.

Such changes in the organization of educational process will allow to form at future experts components of information culture necessary for the modern person. Purpose. Аnalysis of the practical significance of computer technology in the educational process and building a model of the use of computer technology in the training of specialists in economic specialties. Results. Analysis of scientific works on the introduction of compute technology in the educational process of higher education institutions. The formed model of preparation of the specialist for professional activity with use of computer technologies, presented on fig. 1, has the specificity as it is connected with transition from traditional didactic system of training – «teacher-student», «student-student», to new systems «teacher-computer-student», «computer-student» and «tudentcomputer-student». Conclusions. The main means of implementing information and communication technologies in education are the socalled creative technologies - computer graphics, hypertext, electronic textbooks, GIS - technology, virtual reality, computer networks. The use of information and communication technologies in the process of training future professionals has a number of advantages - the ability to control the pace of educational activities, choose the level of complexity of tasks, the ability to clearly demonstrate certain phenomena and others.
