The article analyzes the change in the strategy of training modern specialists, including preschool teachers, in the conditions of innovative transformation of the educational sphere, describes the concepts of «innovative orientation of the preschool teacher», «readiness to innovation», «innovative culture», «innovative competence» and links between them. Particular attention of modern researchers is focused on the training of specialists who are able to creatively implement their own pedagogical skills in new conditions of life, in situations of rapid change. Analysis of the approaches of different authors shows that there is no single point of view in understanding their essence. However, scientists note the importance of the role of the teacher in the implementation of innovative processes, which actualizes the problem of understanding the requirements for it. The article substantiates and develops a set of requirements for educators in the context of implementation of innovations in preschool education in the plane of three approaches: personal (presence of innovative orientation, formation of innovative culture), activity (ownership of technologies of research and project work, acceptance of the subject interaction with other educators) and competency (mastering innovative competence). Analyzing the requirements for the level of theoretical knowledge and practical training of the teacher, it is emphasized that he should be able to direct the educational process on the personality of the pupil, to build their professional activity so that each child has unlimited opportunities for independent and highly effective development. This, in fundamentally different dimensions, defines the problems and content of the professional and personal training of the tutor, actualizes the need to create pedagogical systems oriented to innovation, and accordingly to search for new approaches to training the future specialist.
