Objective of the study is to identify contemporary methodological approaches to the formation of health-promoting activities among students in vocational education.
Methods and structure of the study. The material for the scientific work was provided by dissertation research (abstracts) and articles from peer-reviewed journals, selected according to the criteria of relevance to the topic, the availability of descriptions of models, conditions and technologies, as well as the availability of the full text. Theoretical and comparative analysis, structuring and generalisation of data, as well as quantitative content analysis were applied.
Results and conclusions. The dominance of competence-activity and integrative approaches is demonstrated; a typical structure of health-saving activities (value-motivational, cognitive, activity and reflective components) is described; key pedagogical conditions and technological solutions are identified. Areas requiring further development are identified, including the need to create comprehensive integrative models and practice-oriented technologies for the formation of health-preserving activities of students in vocational education.

Keywords: health-preserving activities, vocational education, students, pedagogical conditions, integrative approach, competence-activity approach, educational environment, health culture.
