The article substantiates the relevance of a cluster model integrating the resources of those participating in the system of personnel training for the Moscow region tourism and service industry with the view to alleviating the personnel shortage and the inadequate professional training of the employees in the target sphere of regional activity. The principle of continuous professional development based on the strategic complex approach to the demand-for-personnel forecasting is used as the conceptual foundation for the cluster formation. The authors propose a solution to the personnel issues concerning multisector spheres of activity: 1) at the regional level; 2) on the intersectoral and interdepartmental basis. The authors describe the efficiency factors of a cluster-model-based organization of professional training systems providing personnel training fordifferent spheres of activity. Among these factors are: 1) regional and local authority’s engagement in solving the staffing problems of the major sector; 2) a recognition by the administrative bodies, educational establishments, business and society in general of the necessity to consider not only the narrow utility task of vacancy-filling, but also, more importantly, the task of equipping the learners with valuable personality tools potentially promoting effective socialization, professionalization, and continuous development through common cultural, methodical and professional competence formation; 3) the readiness level of participants in the system of professional training to take a systematic, purposeful and progressive perspective on developing the on-mid-and-long-term-demand training programmes: from professional induction at the initial stages of learning to advanced training at graduate and postgraduate levels.

In national codes of ethics the practice of psychology is presented as rooted in scientific knowledge, professional skills, and experience. However, it is not self-evident that the body of scientific knowledge in psychology provides an adequate basis for current professional practice. Professional training and experience are seen as necessary for the application of psychological knowledge, but they appear insufficient to defend the soundness of one's practices when challenged in judicial proceedings of a kind that may be faced by psychologists in the European Union in the not too distant future. In seeking to define the basis for the professional competence of psychologists, this article recommends taking a position of modesty concerning the scope and effectiveness of psychological interventions. In many circumstances, psychologists can only provide partial advice, narrowing down the range of possible courses of action more by eliminating unpromising ones than by pointing out the most correct or most favorable one. By emphasizing rigorous evaluation, the profession should gain in accountability and, in the long term, in respectability.

Mentorship in the field of the inclusive education of teachers is a strategy of individual and institutional support which is fulfilled by the collaboration for learning of two persons and is predominantly targeted to professional development. It is a partnership, normally between two persons (mentor and mentee), who work in one sphere and share common experiences. Their partnership is based on beneficial relations, trust (confidentiality), protection, mutual confidence and respect. It emphasizes on the necessity to ensure effective mentorship for newly employed young teachers in order to develop their professional skills through a motivating environment in the process of inclusion of students with special educational needs.Socio-economic changes in the country and the modernization of training require a new approach to teachers' professional competence. Their professionalism is becoming a decisive factor in ensuring the quality of education.Main priority is to create conditions for developing the personality of the teacher, self-realization of his / her abilities, further training and development of his / her professional qualities.The professional training and development of future teachers is a unified, continuous and continuous process aimed at building personal qualities, professional competences, knowledge, skills and habits, adequate to his / her personal needs as well as to the qualification requirements for the occupation.Along with the motivational factors, the mentoring system plays a significant role in the development and improvement of teachers as professionals which is an integral part of the young professional's adaptation to the profession, its overall development and improvement.Often the words "mentor" and "perceptor" are used as synonyms and no distinction is made in their meaningful sound.
