Introduction.
Nowadays, the government of the Republic of Uzbekistan is implementing its
priority policies in the field of education through a series of regulatory documents. Based on the
requirements of the Law "On Education," the content of all stages of continuous education is
determined with a forward-looking approach, ensuring the learning process is supported by high-
quality state educational standards, modernized curricula, and textbooks.
During the implementation of the Law "On Education," a system of continuous education,
recognized worldwide, has been established to meet the demands of the modern era and
contribute to the sustainable development of the country. The President of Uzbekistan, Sh. M.
Mirziyoyev, emphasized: "We are facing an urgent issue that cannot be postponed—providing
educators with modern knowledge and improving their qualifications. In my opinion, this is the
core problem in transforming the education system. We demand that teachers provide students
with modern knowledge. However, to teach modern knowledge, the teacher must first possess
it."
In modern society, the importance of preschool education is steadily increasing. Preschool
institutions play a crucial role in the intellectual, social, emotional, and physical development of
children. In this process, the professional competence of educators is of paramount importance.
This article analyzes the key directions and methods for developing the professional competence
of preschool education teachers.

process considering their individual characteristics.
