The article presents a modern approach to the design of the basic educational program for the training of a pedagogue-psychologist, the purpose and objectives of which are set by the professional standard “Pedagogue-psychologist (educational psychologist)”. The structure of the basic educational program of bachelor and master's levels is designed according to the modular principle, and the key mechanism for achieving educational results - professional competences - is networking with partner organizations (schools, kindergartens, psychological and medico-social centers). The main criteria of network partners for the training of psychologists are described. The training module is characterized as a logically completed, relatively independent part of the educational program that forms a certain competence or group of competencies. In the curriculum the module acts as an educational unit uniting theory, practice, research work and the final modular attestation of the student. The advantages of the modular structure of the educational program, coupled with the professional standard, are presented.
