The article substantiates and highlights essential and substantive characteristics of students’ innovative activity in terms of the competency-based approach. The academic environment promoting the development of innovative students’ abilities for creative self-fulfillment, experimentally tested in the process of their professional training is revealed. Based on the methods of theoretical and empirical research, it is shown that the engineered academic environment providing for innovative student’s creative potential development contributes to intensification of their professional training process. This academic environment is designed on the basis of interactive and heuristic teaching technologies. Such environment facilitates formation of the ability to independently detect and lay down a problem, search for its solution and verify its adequacy; to employ or look for the technologies feeding into solution of the problem; to analyze the efficiency of technology tools by comparing their features and functions. The results of the study can be used in working with innovative students during development of their creative potential.
