Its basis is integration of traditional and innovative (electronic) forms of education with the constant growth of information and communication technologies, as well as electronic resources. The condition for the competent approach implementation in the educational process of a higher educational institution is the creation of an educational communicative environment.

The purpose of the educational communicative environment during the professional training of future translators is their professional and communicative development, which reflects progressive changes in the ability to build a coherent statement; development of listening, reading and writing; the nature of the interaction of all types of speech activity; development of speech mechanisms; development of linguistic means of speech activity on the basis of expanding vocabulary and linguistic rules assimilation; development of ways of forming and formulating thoughts and their conscious differentiation for different communication conditions. Solving problems in various communicative situations students master certain ways of action, the result of such process is their professional and communicative development.
