Introduction. The use of a competence-based approach in the practice of training a teacher of secondary vocational education is a part of the requirements for the learning outcomes in the federal state educational standard. However, real organisations do not use the possibilities of a competence-based approach for the selection and forecasting of professional development when improving the human resources potential. The competence model of a teacher of secondary vocational education can become the core of such practice in the system of secondary vocational education.
The aim of the article is to substantiate the soft skill model of a secondary vocational education teacher in order to improve the human potential through the procedures of professional psychological selection and forecasting of professional success.

Results. In the course of the research, a list of soft competencies of a teacher of secondary vocational education was identified and a sequence of development of a competence model for professional psychological selection and forecasting the professional development of a teacher of secondary vocational education was proposed.
Scientific novelty. A separate group of soft competencies was identified on a sample of secondary vocational education teachers, aimed at predicting the changes in both the professional activity and oneself as its subject.
Practical significance. The presented sequence of model development can be applied to other industries or types of activities.
