A number of practical tasks shall provide the achieving of goals posed by development plan.

The results of first stage were received by the end of 2015; authors of this paper describe and explain the methodological approach using for such study work as well as the instruments used and make the short analysis of results paying special attention to problems and “bottle necks” arising in course of such enquiry.
