This study addresses the gap between traditional informatics teacher training in Kazakhstan and the practical demands of modern classrooms. It explores the integration of dual education and the informaticedu.kz digital platform as a means to enhance methodological and practical competencies among future teachers. A mixed-methods design was used, involving 24 students from Pavlodar Pedagogical University. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and qualitative interviews. Quantitative responses were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-tests, and correlation analysis, while qualitative data underwent thematic analysis. The findings showed that the platform significantly supported lesson planning and methodological development, particularly among 4th-year students who rated the tool more positively than 3rd-year students. High correlations were found between understanding lesson structure and effective planning. However, participants reported a lack of interactive content such as case studies and problem-solving tasks. The results suggest that integrating dual education with specialized digital platforms enhances informatics teacher training. Still, to maintain relevance and effectiveness, platforms must evolve to include more interactive and adaptive features tailored to different training stages.
