Relevance of the study is conditioned by the strategic need to modernize the system of professional development of pedagogical staff of professional colleges amidst transformational societal, social, and military challenges. This determines the necessity of purposefully forming professional flexibility, adaptability, and the ability to make substantiated, non-standard decisions in lecturers by implementing innovative interactive pedagogical technologies, particularly case technology. Objective: to substantiate the theoretical and methodological foundations of applying case technology for the purposeful and complex formation of key components of the professional competence of pedagogical staff of professional colleges. Methods: systemic analysis and synthesis of scientific sources – to substantiate theoretical provisions; the method of pedagogical modeling – to construct a mechanism of the synergistic influence of case technology on the structure of professional competence; as well as generalization and systematization – to determine and sequentially describe the steps of creating a high-quality educational case. Results: it has been proven that case technology ensures a holistic synergistic influence on five mutually conditioned components of lecturers' professional competence: motivational-value, cognitive-informational, behavioral-activity, personal-reflective, and emotional-volitional. Five steps of the algorithm for developing an educational case, which ensure its didactic effectiveness, have been refined and structured (defining the goal, collecting material, formulating the problem, developing analytical questions, designing the assessment procedure), and the use of a methodological map as a tool for effective management of group dynamics at key stages of work on the case has been substantiated. Conclusions: it has been determined that the systemic application of case technology is one of the most effective tools for developing the professional competence of lecturers of professional colleges; it has been proven that its effectiveness is based on the simulation modeling of real, multi-factor situations; a holistic and complex influence of case technology on the five-component structure of competence has been established; the creation of educational cases through a clear algorithm has been methodologically substantiated; it has been clarified that successful implementation depends on the quality of content and the effective organization of group work managed by a lecturer-moderator using a methodological map.
