1. In oduc ion
Since he 1960s, lea ning has gene ally been di ided in o h ee main ca ego ies, which a e now
widely accep ed and ecognised, e en by la ge ins i u ions.
The Eu opean Commission desc ibes hese ypes o lea ning as ollows:
Fo mal lea ning akes place in educa ion and aining ins i u ions and leads o ecognised
diplomas and quali5ca ions.
Non- o mal lea ning akes place alongside mains eam educa ion and aining sys ems
and does no usually lead o o malised quali5ca ions. Non- o mal lea ning can be
deli e ed in he wo kplace and h ough he ac i i ies o ci il socie y o ganisa ions and
g oups (e.g. you h o ganisa ions, ade unions and poli ical pa ies). I can also be p o ided
by o ganisa ions o se ices se up o complemen o mal sys ems (e.g. a , music and
spo s lessons o u o ing o p epa e o exams).
In o mal lea ning is a na u al pa o e e yday li e. Unlike o mal and non- o mal lea ning,
in o mal lea ning is no necessa ily in en ional lea ning and, he e o e, may no e en be
ecognised by he indi idual hemsel es as con ibu ing o hei knowledge and skills.

In o mal educa ion as a esponse o child en's pe sonal cu iosi y Despi e he social and cul u al

In o mal educa ion o he educa ion o adul s
In ou socie y, he concep o educa ion is expanding and is ac ually seen as a li elong p ocess:
‘In he educa ion deba e o he las 30 yea s – and especially in he las decade – he concep o

Apa om he small pe cen age o people who pa icipa e in uni e si y cou ses, in o mal

example o he social bene5 s o in o mal educa ion is he willingness o adul s o lea n how o
