Scientific and educational cooperation: between Russia and Tajikistan is mutually beneficial for each of the parties. Assessment of the current situation and justification of proposals for the further development of relations between these countries made it possible to identify the vector of their transformations. For Russia and Tajikistan, the connection of education with the changes taking place in each of the countries is important. Since these changes are dynamic, continuous vocational education should play a significant role. For more effective implementation of continuing vocational education, work on career guidance is necessary, which is well combined with a dual education system that provides for close cooperation with companies, as well as the development of additional vocational education that actively responds to changes in the labor market. Positive results can be achieved only in the context of the active development of modern computer technologies, providing for interactivity, visualization, the use of case stages, mini-research, design work, as well as the possibility of hybrid learning. With this approach, the quality of comprehensive interdisciplinary research and development increases. It is recommended to form an organizational structure of an educational organization according to the type of organization based on knowledge, which is preferable in an unstable socioeconomic environment. The basis for the implementation of proposals for the further development of scientific and educational relations between Russia and Tajikistan is social partnership, as an instrument for regulating social and labor relations.
