Abstract

The article emphasizes the importance of health work in the field of physical culture and sports, highlighting ways to enhance key training areas in higher education through digital technologies. These methods aim to improve the quality of physical culture professionals and promote a healthy environment during society's modern development. The role of educational, training, methodological, and practical classes in establishing a healthy environment is clarified. The components of physical culture and health preservation are described to support the application of digital technologies, along with measures and tools related to the health function of physical culture – specifically, physical culture and health technologies – as well as the tasks and rules of modern health work. An experiment testing the effectiveness of the developed system for training future physical culture and sports specialists indicated that the control group's results remained largely unchanged. In contrast, the experimental group showed significant qualitative improvements after implementing the system and conducting the author's special course. These changes are reflected in the overall readiness structure and in various factors, marked by shifts in the significance of individual components of readiness.
