ABSTRACT. The paper analyzes the change in the composition, quantity and territorial deployment of vocational educational institutions in the Sverdlovsk region (within its present-day borders) in the 1920s–1950s. Based on the use of database technology and geographic information systems, it attempts to identify and localize educational institutions, to detect the stages of development and trends in changes of their network. The evolution of the regional network of vocational educational institutions is analyzed mainly in five time points: 1) 1922–1923 — the beginning of the formation of the Soviet model of vocational education; 2) 1932–1933 — an intensive expansion of the departmental network of vocational education institutions during; 3) 1940 – early 1941 — the creation of a system of State labor reserves as a single nationwide system for the training of qualified workers; 4) 1948 — the functioning of the network of educational institutions at the maximum level of quantitative indicators as a result of its extensive development; 5) 1958 — reforming the system of vocational education in order to differentiate and deepen the level of training of workers. The study of a vocational educational institutions network, concentrated in 20 sub-regions of the Sverdlovsk region, revealed a number of trends associated with a constant quantitative growth in the number of educational institutions and the contingent of students; consolidation of educational institutions and their relocation from the «old» industrial centers to areas of concentration of industrial enterprises built during the first five-year plans or evacuated during the Great Patriotic War.
