Due to the active reanimation of the post-pandemic space and including all spheres of society into the new digital reality, significant changes are also taking place in the field of higher education. The current situation requires changes in the forms of interaction with students, the use of new pedagogical technologies, and the creation of new conditions for training and education. The spread of digital technologies in the service sector requires the formation of professional competences, knowledge, skills and experience that are applicable in the new reality. The ability of students to adapt quickly to new conditions largely determines the success of not only educational, but also future professional activity. Thus, it becomes significant to study the technological aspects of developing the personal adaptive potential of future service professionals. Personal adaptation potential of a specialist is understood as the ability to perform professional tasks effectively in extreme and stressful situations. The development of students' personal adaptive potential ensures the formation of professional competitiveness. The purpose of the article is to identify mechanisms for the development of personal adaptive potential of service majors in modern conditions. The article examines the elements of personal adaptive potential and pedagogical conditions that contribute to its development. The scientific novelty and theoretical significance lies in the identification of technological conditions that contribute to the development of personal adaptive potential of University students. The practical significance consists in using the results of an empirical study to identify pedagogical conditions for the development of personal adaptive potential of service majors and working out relevant recommendations. The research methodology is based on systemic, activity-oriented, competence-based and technological approaches. Research methods include: analysis of scientific publications, included observation, modeling of the pedagogical process, questionnaire methods and testing. To conduct an empirical study, we used the methods of E. A. Klimov, K. Zamfir, A. A. Rean, A. G. Maklakov and S. V. Chermyanin. Pedagogical technology is a set of forms, methods and techniques of training aimed at developing the personal adaptive potential of students and includes a description of the goals, objectives, methods of pedagogical influence, methodological materials used, requirements for learning outcomes - characteristics of professional competences. The technological approach to the development of personal adaptive potential of service majors presupposes the construction of algorithms for future professional activity. The formation of the educational process is based on the principles of expediency, procession, normalization, reproducibility, consistency and efficiency. The essence of the proposed technology for the development of personal adaptive potential is based on: formation of students' motivation for professional activity in the service sector; organization of effective interaction between teachers and students in academic and extracurricular activities; inclusion of students in the process of planning their professional development and career trajectory, formation of reference points and their achievement in the process of studying at the University; inter-subject relations and the applicability of results in various subject areas.
