- preparation for teaching;
- writing preparations with clearly developed goals, structure, content, planned student activities;
- preparation of appropriate didactic material and aids;
- teaching basic knowledge in one or more subjects;
- guiding students to a meaningful interdisciplinary connection of that knowledge in order to gain a complete picture of the world;
- enabling students to develop their own ways of learning and personal system of thinking;
- encouraging the development of the student's uniqueness;

The most general generic competencies at the level of each cycle of education, which must be possessed by every graduated student, regardless of the study program or the institution where he completed his higher education, are defined as:
- Dublin descriptors (Dublin descriptors), which represent a set of criteria on the expected achievements and abilities of students to distinguish different cycles of education, which were proposed by the Joint Quality Initiative (JQI), and which are accepted as the basis of the description of each cycle of education on ministerial meeting in Bergen in May 2005.
- The general framework for qualifications in European higher education (Framework for Qualifications of the European Higher Education - EQF for HE), which was adopted at the ministerial meeting in Bergen in May 2005.

Key subject-professional competencies
Students should be able to:
- To demonstrate knowledge of the basics and history of their major field of study/discipline;
- To show (express) acquired basic knowledge in a coherent way;
- To include new professional information and interpretations in that context;
- To demonstrate an understanding of the overall structure of the field of study and the connection with scientific disciplines;
- To demonstrate that they understand and can apply methods of critical analysis and theoretical development in their field of study;
- To correctly apply appropriate disciplinary methods and techniques;
- To demonstrate an understanding of research methods in the relevant field;
- To show that they understand the experimental tests and observations on which scientific theories are based.
These competencies are categorized as instrumental, interpersonal and systemic:
- Instrumental competencies include:
- Cognitive abilities, understanding and manipulation of ideas and thoughts.
- Methodological abilities to communicate with the environment: organizing time and strategies for learning, making decisions or solving problems.
- Technological abilities related to the use of technological means, computers and the application of information management skills.
- Language skills such as written and oral communication or knowledge of foreign languages.
- Interpersonal competences: Individual abilities that include the ability to express one's feelings, social skills such as interpersonal skills, working in teams, or expressing social and ethical commitment. These competencies enable processes of social interaction and cooperation.

These abilities include the ability to plan changes in order to improve existing systems and create new systems. Systemic competences require prior acquisition of instrumental and interpersonal competences
Generic descriptors of first cycle studies according to general educational outcomes adopted at the Bergen Conference (19-20 May 2005):
Qualifications representing the successful completion of the first cycle (180-240 ECTS points) are awarded to students who:
- demonstrate knowledge and understanding in the field of study, which builds on their secondary education and is common at first cycle level, supported by appropriate learning resources at higher education level (university textbooks, information and communication technologies), which includes aspects of knowledge of advanced achievements in a given field of study;
- can apply detailed knowledge and critical understanding of the principles related to a given field of study/discipline in a way that shows a professional approach to work or profession, and possess competencies that are usually expressed by the ability to form and support opinions and positions with arguments and the ability to solve problems within the given field of study;
- have the ability to collect and interpret relevant data (within a given field of study) on the basis of which they make judgments that may also include reflections on relevant social scientific or ethical issues;

Sports science studies are oriented towards students' acquisition of the main sports-science, teaching, organizational and specific training competencies.
Also within the framework of undergraduate studies, students who have completed their studies will be able to face, based on the principles of sports scientific knowledge, initiatives that connect health and sports and to solve the problems of sports practice.
They will be able to apply their basic competencies built during their studies in new areas of sports practice and to meet the needs and expectations of different target groups. They will be trained to apply and develop concepts that meet the emancipation needs of various social groups, including people with special needs.
Students also get basic knowledge of pedagogy, methodology, didactics and psychology with application to the specifics of knowledge transfer in the field of sports sciences.
The basic skills related to the Pedagogical-teaching study program in sports are identical to the skills acquired by the "Sports coach". The difference is that the students of this study program have significantly increased competencies related to individual sports, considering that students must learn basic sports from all sports branches.
In this regard, these students' skill competences have been greatly increased, especially due to the synergistic effect that results from the extremely good physical preparation that these students acquire and from the wide range of skills related to events where the skill factor is primary.
Field of employment of physical education teachers:
- Schools and other institutions that formally and informally educate students;
- Management, cooperation and counseling in the following organizations: self-organized groups, sports for people with special needs (disabled, etc.), recreational groups in free time, corporate sports, fitness centers;
- Tourism, sports associations, sports facilities,
- Sports and health policy
- Professional-management functions in associations and clubs to international sports organizations;
- Sports management activities in regional institutions;
