In recent decades, before teaching science and educational practice it necessary to address the serious problem of young professionals to the answer to modern social needs. The success of a young person in society at a high cultural level is provided, including through the creation of a culture of communication that allows a young person to become a strong personality, fully "human culture". The problem of training versa-tile specialist with a high level of culture (including the culture of the word) and mobile operation under dynamic society – a methodological problem of liberal education, which has not been solved completely. At the same time, one of the main solutions to this problem, in my opinion, is the purposeful formation of a future professional communicative competence, which is the main component of verbal communication (communication). In this paper, the author based on the analysis of the scientific literature examines concepts such as "competency", "competence", "communicative competence" and tries to establish a relationship and interdependence between them.
