It is demonstrated that the transfer of VET-organizations to the regional level was due to the disintegration of the Soviet system of planning. Within the process VET system transfer to the regional level, the ratio of federal/regional financing was significantly changed. The share of expenditure of consolidated budgets of the Russian regions for VET-education has increased steadily against the background of the simultaneous reduction in federal level funding. During the last 15 years the share of expenditure on vocational education in the overall structure of public expenditure on education was rapidly decreasing. As affected of 2008 crisis and deficit of regional budgets, the Federal Program for the Development of Education 2011-2015 played an important role in the process of updates material and technical basis. Another crucial effect of Program consist in expansion of private-public partnership model in VET system.
