The article reveals ways to use digital technologies to develop inclusive competence in future teachers. This will contribute to the practice-oriented teaching of students with special educational needs. A review of modern digital technologies in education is revealed, and digital tools in inclusive higher education are revealed. The main methodological approaches that ensure the effective implementation of digital tools in the educational process of higher education are shown. The conceptual idea of the study is that the formation of inclusive competence in a future specialist through the use of digital technologies will contribute to practice-oriented teaching of students with special educational needs through the use of digital technologies, which is possible by forming a sufficient level of personal, cognitive and activity components. A pedagogical technology was developed, which was aimed at ensuring a sufficient level of inclusive competence of a future teacher for working with children with special needs. An experimental test of the effectiveness of the author's technology for training students was carried out within the framework of the implementation of the special course "Implementation of inclusive higher education through the use of digital technologies". As a result, we observe an increase in the overall coefficient of inclusive competence of students in the experimental groups, which indicates the effectiveness of the developed author's technology.
