In the conditions of industrial social development, a man-made environment (the technosphere) enlarges, while the biosphere and its biological processes are being transformed in the anthropogenic way, and as a result, this technogenic reality of life, in which a person exists, is being formed. The accelerated expansion of the technosphere requires not only Cyclopean depleting of natural resources, but makes a man apply himself fully-extended both physically and psycho-emotionally, causing certain difficulties in his adaptation and socialization profession-wide, including such an innovative science-intensive industry as railways. Modern education system does not correct such processes, contributing to repressing of personal enhancement, and prevents marshalling of the individual’s resources in the struggle for the preservation of biosphere life and natural habitat. Therefore, the problem of the need of modern education resources identification together with the development of its new philosophical growth strategy based on the potential of social pedagogy aimed at the full adaptation and socialization of a person in the technogenic reality of life, both physically tangible and virtual has been raised in the study. The research of social pedagogy is based on the concept of socialization, which will make possible the maximum expansion of the scope intended for the development of practical support programs for the existence of an individual. Such an interdisciplinary approach, combining educational technologies and socio-pedagogical support of the individual throughout his life, will allow both overcoming the negative consequences of transformational processes connected with the expansion of the technosphere, and solving the problems of adaptation and socialization of a person in the conditions of dangerously changing socio-technogenic development of the world.
