Distance learning is one of the forms of the continuing education system, which is designed to realize human rights to education and information. It should become a new educational model that allows for continuous self-improvement aimed at developing the technologies of continuous receipt, processing of information and its practical application. Information education is a requirement of the twenty-first century. A number of factors make the creation of a distance learning system particularly relevant today: the development of a market economy, academic mobility, increasing migration, concentration of large research and education centers in large cities, the formation of new requirements for education, etc. Therefore, distance (e-learning) is an extremely popular form of education due to its convenience and flexibility. The article studies the features of e-learning as an innovative technology for training future technology teachers. In order to achieve the set goals, the authors used theoretical (analysis, generalization, synthesis) and empirical (observation, description, comparison) research methods. The content of the concept of "elearning" is clarified, the stages of its development in the national education system are established; the features and principles of implementation are determined. The conditions for the effective implementation of e-learning in the training of future technology teachers are characterized. It is stated that e-learning in higher education institutions provides a wide range of new services that will help students to acquire new competencies for future professional activities, and teachers to improve their qualifications.
