The object of the study is the process of professional training of employees of the internal affairs agencies of the Russian Federation in educational organizations of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, while the subject of the research includes methods, means, and pedagogical conditions that contribute to the establishment of their professional worldview. The author thoroughly analyzes the stages of the technology, which include: diagnosing the level of professional worldview of cadets; developing an educational program that includes theoretical classes, practical assignments, and training; integrating practical internships and assessing results, which allows for capturing the changes achieved in the professional worldview. Pedagogical conditions are outlined, and recommendations are given that will facilitate the achievement of the stated goal – the successful implementation of the proposed technology for forming the professional worldview of cadets of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia. Particular attention is paid to the integration of theoretical training with practical activities, as well as the influence of educational work and service experience on the development of the professional worldview. In conclusion, the author draws conclusions about the necessity of a comprehensive approach to forming the worldview of cadets, combining educational, formative, and practical components. The author applies a comprehensive methodology based on systemic, activity-based, and personality-oriented approaches. This allows the process of forming the professional worldview of cadets of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia to be viewed as a multi-level phenomenon dependent on pedagogical, psychological, and social factors. Special emphasis is placed on practice-oriented methods (case studies, training sessions, internships), as the professional worldview is formed precisely through activity. The novelty of the research lies in the systematization and clarification of the key components of the professional worldview of cadets in higher educational institutions of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, as well as the development of a theoretically grounded model for forming a professional worldview that integrates the stages of the educational process and pedagogical conditions for effective implementation. A mentorship system is proposed as a mechanism for supporting the professional adaptation of graduates, which expands traditional approaches to training employees of law enforcement agencies. The author’s significant contribution to the study of this topic includes identifying specific pedagogical conditions that facilitate the formation of a professional worldview and developing criteria for assessing the formation of a professional worldview, including the stability of value orientations, the readiness to make decisions in non-standard situations, and the level of legal consciousness. The results of the study can be used to improve educational programs and methodologies for training employees of the internal affairs agencies of the Russian Federation.
