This article examines the role of student-centered educational technologies in developing social competencies among students. The study highlights the importance of modern pedagogical approaches that focus on learners’ active participation, independence, cooperation, and personal development. Special attention is given to the effectiveness of interactive teaching methods such as collaborative learning, project-based learning, problem-based learning, case studies, and digital educational technologies in improving students’ communication, teamwork, leadership, critical thinking, and problem-solving abilities. The article analyzes theoretical perspectives of learner-centered education and emphasizes the transformation of the teacher’s role from a traditional knowledge provider into a facilitator who supports students’ social and professional growth. The findings indicate that the systematic implementation of student-centered educational technologies creates favorable conditions for preparing socially competent, responsible, and adaptable individuals capable of successful interaction in modern society.
