It was found that the participation of regional stakeholders should be coordinated with the requirements of the strategy development process and the ability of each participant to meet these requirements. The set of knowledge and skills of stakeholders should provide a sufficient level for the successful preparation of each segment of the regional development strategy. The best practices of large-scale and complex processes of interaction of stakeholders of regional smart specialization in Europe, which involve the use of various forms and types of interaction, are considered. The elements and meaningful components of the knowledge model, which should become the basis for the development of educational programs for training specialists in smart specialization through obtaining higher education, short-term professional development, participation in specialized seminars and trainings, and the creation of groups in messengers for the exchange of information, experience and communication between specialists, have been determined. etc., which will meet not only today’s, but also future requirements for the competence of participants in the development of development strategies based on smart specialization.
