The article presents the results of an empirical study aimed at determining the effectiveness of pedagogical conditions for the formation of readiness of future physical education and sports specialists for rehabilitation activities. The study was implemented in the format of a quasi-experimental mixed design with parallel groups of education seekers. The empirical procedure included three stages: preparatory (conceptual analysis, development of a model and tools), ascertaining (measurement of baseline levels, assessment of sample homogeneity) and formative (implementation of pedagogical conditions and final diagnostics). A validated diagnostic toolkit was used for the assessment, which measured the motivational-value, informational-cognitive, self-educational-professional and operational-activity components of readiness. The results show that the modernization of the content of academic disciplines, a special course on innovative rehabilitation technologies, and interactive practice-oriented methods significantly increase the level of readiness of students for rehabilitation activities. The proposed model has significant potential for improving professional training in the field of physical rehabilitation in higher education institutions.
