The article is devoted to the problems of the development of the national system of qualifications in Ukraine. The European vector of Ukraine's development necessitated the development and approval of the National Framework of Qualifications based on the European meta-frameworks. The universal nature of the latter does not allow taking into account the branch specifics of human activity and, as a result, the problem of developing branch frameworks of qualifications, characterized by common features of professional activity and necessary for modern specialists to work in a certain field, is actualized. The article compares the levels and descriptors of the European Qualifications Framework for Lifelong Learning, the Qualifications Framework for the European Area of Higher Education and the National Qualifications Framework of Ukraine, which made it possible to state that our country has chosen its own path in the development of the qualification system, taking into account the experience of the countries of the European Union. It is noted that in European countries, the development of sectoral frameworks of qualifications can be carried out on the basis of two approaches: for the fields of education and the fields of the labor market. For Ukraine, the main problem at the moment is the criteria by which the types of the sectoral frameworks of qualifications should be determined, in particular, by the fields of higher education or types of economic activity. The article presents the author's vision of the sectoral framework of qualifications in relation to the 7th level of qualifications for the field of knowledge "Social and behavioral sciences", the characteristic feature of which are additional dimensions that reveal the specific characteristics of the field. It has been established that representatives of relevant central bodies of executive power, industry councils, professional associations and the education system, employers, and the population should participate in the development of sectoral frameworks of qualifications. All of them will determine the framework requirements for specialists in certain fields of activity, which will become one of the means of increasing the efficiency of the use of labor potential at all levels of the national economy. Prospects for further research into the sectoral framework of qualifications are related to their content, definition of criteria for their quantitative determination, and institutional support.
