All this allows us to consider in detail such aspects of the topic as the change of the traditional approach in the educational process, which is replaced by an innovative and technological way of information exchange along with analytical, normative and axiological study of the humanities and natural sciences. The article focuses on the fact that in modern conditions, the training of law enforcement officers of departmental higher educational institutions is gradually acquiring digital prospects in the development of professional potential and high technology. The main conclusions of the study are the formulated main components of general cultural, professional competencies that allow law enforcement officers to develop special abilities in the process of studying at higher school.

Abstract: The research object is the migration processes not only causing problems with law enforcement, connected with the investigation and solution of crimes committed by foreign citizens, but also require legislative and theoretical interpretation of particular provisions of legal acts. The research subject is the modern view of the criminal science on the legal regulation of migration processes (based on the case study of the legislation of the Russian Federation). Special attention is given to the purpose of the research which is the necessity to define and study the collision aspects in the field of migration legislation determining the need for the formation of a forensic technique of the investigation of crimes committed by foreign citizens. The author arrives at the following conclusions: the comprehensive analysis of the legal fundamentals of migration legislation helps to find out that practically each legal source contains the gaps not regulated by the legislation and requiring a detailed approach to the reconsideration, amending, or cancelation of the latter; no legal act contains the definition “illegal migration”; the proven lack of the category “migration safety” in the migration legislation, which is becoming more and more required year by year not only from the viewpoint of law enforcement, but in some collision aspects on the part of a legislator; the study of the sign of illegality in terms of its detection by means of a similar idea of an unresolved case. The special contribution of the author is the attempt to consider the author’s position on the category “crimes committed by foreign citizens” from the viewpoint of the criminal science. The author points at the importance and acceptance of the introduction of a new method - information frame modeling  which consists in in-depth development of particular structures, i.e. information is presented in basic standard processes and actions typical for a particular research subject area. The scientific novelty of the research consists in the author’s interpretation of the definition of “crimes committed by foreign citizens” and formulation of the categories of “migration safety”, “unresolved case” and “organization of illegal residency in the Russian Federation”.

Abstract: The research subject is the evaluation technique of the firearms qualification of a postgraduate of educational institutions of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia. The purpose of the research is to develop and scientifically prove the model of firearms qualification of the postgraduates of educational institutions of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia. The research helps detect the problem of postgraduates’ skills improvement, which could be solved by means of evaluating the firearms qualification of students based on the model characteristics, which would increase the motivation to improve the firearms skills. The authors’ contribution is the development of a model of firearms qualification of postgraduates based on the qualification characteristics of tactical, technical and psychological qualification, since the current evaluation system doesn’t fully comply with the real conditions of using firearms by internal affairs officers. The scientific novelty of the research consists in the development of a model of firearms qualification of postgraduates based on the qualification characteristics of tactical and technical and psychological qualification. The practical importance of the research consists in the fact that the firearms qualification model will allow defining the specific tasks of the educational process and finding the relevant means and methods of training, as well as the size of exercise and mental load. The research results can be used during the firearms training process in educational institutions of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia. The acquired results have helped to develop and substantiate the teaching guidelines to be used by the instructional staff during the firearms training process.
