Pedagogical principles are the basis for choosing learning technologies, which in turn is a tool for high-quality professional training. The choice of pedagogical technology is carried out by the teacher on the basis of his personal pedagogical beliefs, and the teaching technology forms the individual style of his pedagogical activity. Sometimes learning technologies representing a set of forms, methods and means of teaching can act as independent didactic systems that have received generally accepted names, for example, problem-based learning, contextual learning, programmed learning, etc. We have considered the most important pedagogical principles that are the methodological basis of professional education and are implemented in the study of general professional and special disciplines of specialists in the service sector, and also proposed the author's principles: the principle of interactive student activity, the principle of research orientation, the principle of reflexivity. For the formation of personal and professional qualities of students, it is necessary to involve each student in practical useful activities using the means and content of education, which is determined by curricula, programs, textbooks.
