Situational modeling is considered as an imitation of a situation or process, a specific real thing, which involves reproducing the behavior of participants in the educational process by the selected situation of some key properties in other words, these are role-playing games with clearly defined roles, where the model of learning in the game is the basis of the methods of situational modeling, that is, the educational process is built as a model of processes, situations, phenomena being studied. The main methodological approaches and progressive situations when using situational modeling methods in the educational process of higher education are considered. Such main methodological approaches and progressive situations were applied in the development and use of the situational modeling method in the educational process of higher education. Implementing the situational modeling method in the educational process of higher education was preceded by compliance with the developed pedagogical conditions. At the formative stage of the experiment, the developed situational modeling methodology (compared to the traditional teaching methodology) for the formation of students' knowledge and skills showed significant effectiveness.
