Abstract

The paper deals with the interrelation of needs and abilities. The main regularities of their interdependence are presented. There exist three modes: accurate correspondence of needs and abilities; needs are formed prior to abilities; abilities are formed prior to needs. Modern educational technologies and techniques of teaching should balance material and spiritual components in the creative activity of a professional. The ability development of modern professionals takes place in accordance with society’s needs, with society simultaneously reorganizing it and forming a feed-back mechanism thus stimulating their further evolution.
